Response to Keir Starmer’s six missions speech today

Responding to Keir Starmer’s six missions speech today, Chief Executive of Child Poverty Action Group Alison Garnham said: 

‘It’s good to hear that ending child poverty is central for Labour, but the best way to achieve that is by ending the two-child limit on benefits which is driving so many children into hardship.   A child poverty reduction plan is essential, but scrapping the two-child limit would have to be step one.'
