Charities and Labour-aligned groups are urging Keir Starmer to remove the two-child limit on benefits, amidst strong public support for prioritizing childhood welfare. Poll results show 73% of voters believe all children deserve a good childhood, with 71% advocating for enhanced government investment in children. Organizations like Save the Children and CPAG emphasize the urgency of a new child poverty strategy, which reflects a commitment to improving the lives of the 4.5 million impoverished children in the UK. Former CPAG director Baroness Ruth Lister calls for legally binding child poverty reduction targets.
The public stands in support of the 4.5 million children in the UK living in poverty and now it's time for government to act.
A child poverty strategy that increases living standards and improves life chances will make the crucial difference to children, their families and the country alike.
