The two-child limit is unjust and causes untold harm to the nation's children. @TheIFS estimates that scrapping it would cost the equivalent of just 3% of the total working-age benefit budget. It's a small price to pay for justice and compassion. heraldscotland.com/politics/westm…

I've heard #workingclass colleagues talking about their tension point or when they knew they were different i.e. whilst at #university. This shows how isolated - by design - working class communities can be, but it doesn't take away the excitement of renting your first phone 😉👇

The project operated either through a private laundry pick up and delivery service, or by distributing tokens through partner organisations, depending on the area. The laundry service helped households reduce household-related expenses and energy bills. 💸✌️
