Tbf, I didn’t know it was that littleSo the £17.25 per week for a child will encourage certain people to have more kids? It’s hardly a kings ransom is it.
Perspective folks, perspective.

about £26 for first child and £17.25 per child thereafter, used to be for only 2nd child. Less than 3 pints at HDS to me, a fortune to someone unable to feed their kids.Tbf, I didn’t know it was that little
On a side note, is there a discussion to be had on means testing the child benefit payment?
it’s capped at 60k a year for one parent, or a household income of 100k a year.
There’s a lot of couples (me and my mrs included) receiving this payment every month when it can be better spent elsewhere, on more vulnerable people?

No that'll be the announcement that you can no longer have an Alfa/Audi/BMW/Merc as a mobility car.I haven’t seen the budget yet, but just saw a woman in a council house who has 3 kids, have a Ferrari delivered so I’m guessing she’s scrapped the 2 kid cap?

I do wish Daisy Cooper would stop flicking her head ffs
Clearly pandering to farage with the milkshake tax!Definitely necessary to scrap the 2 child cap if we are going to grow as a population organically. The worry will be that kids are viewed as a meal ticket for the benefit frauds. It'll be interesting to see how she implements it. Child Poverty in the 21st Century in the UK simply should not exist. If the MPs can have heavily subsidised meals in Westminster then all kids in schools should get Free School Meals. Great to see some Tory minister shouted down who owned a 5m house in London when she criticised the cap removal.
The 5p freeze on fuel duty. Gee thanks for not taxing us more Rach.
Not moving the Income Rate tax goalposts. Cheers for the continued stealth tax Rach. Gotta love that Fiscal Drag
Thank goodness for the extra tax on Sugar drinks. Please make sure the Sugar Free drinks with the un confirmed carcinogenic ingredients are sold to the kids instead Rach. Down with Milkshakes!!!!
Is it not PIP payments?No that'll be the announcement that you can no longer have an Alfa/Audi/BMW/Merc as a mobility car.
For a good reason, they were absolute death traps made by complete idiots.That was actually suggested by a member of Reform.
They haven’t been made for fifty years at least![]()
