NEW🚨| 9.6 million workers set to benefit from stronger sick pay as of today. * 1.2 million workers - majority low-paid women - get access to statutory sick for the first time. * 8.4 million will get sick pay from the first day of illness - instead of having to wait four days.



Confidently wrong. Disability benefits(12%) are hard to claim by design, and they make up a far smaller share than pensions, which take ~55% of the bill. You’re aiming outrage at the wrong target. Facts trump your echo chamber.

The 2 child benefit cap ends today. Ever wonder who is going to benefit the most?







Today we are lifting 450,000 children out of poverty with the end of the two-child limit. This Labour Government is achieving the biggest reduction in child poverty over a Parliament since records began. Change promised. Change delivered.



From today, the two child limit is lifted. That means 450,000 children will no longer grow up in poverty.


Today millions will get sick pay for the first time, and from day one Paternity leave from day one Ending the two-child benefit cap will lift hundreds of thousands of kids out of poverty. Union campaigning & a Labour government making a difference. Progress made. More needed.


Exactly this - my brother and his partner have 4 children. Neither my brother or his partner work. They claim housing, unemployment, PIP x 2, carers allowance etc. They have in excess of £3k a month in benefits. Last year they all went to Lanzarote for 10 days, they have family days out every 2 weeks, regularly go out for family meals and have all the gadgets you can imagine. His partner and their eldest 2 have their nails done every 3 weeks. They don’t want to work because in their words “work doesn’t pay and they will be worse off” - thanks to Labour, this family will now be rewarded with thousands more a year whilst we work more to fund their lavish lifestyle. Thats not reducing child poverty - it’s encouraging people to become reliant on the state. Rewarding people fully capable of work to sit at home and take from those that work. Their children were nowhere near the poverty line - and now, after Labours latest reward, they are planning a Summer holiday in Spain and an October break somewhere else, likely the Canaries again. So yeah, thanks Labour - I’m so ‘pleased’ that you enable these people to rub salt in the wounds of the working class - bravo 🙄
