👏 We welcome the announcement in today's #ScottishBudget that @scotgov plans to mitigate the two child limit in social security. ‼️ This is a cruel policy which has a devastating effect on child poverty and family wellbeing. 👉 Read our full statement: opfs.org.uk/get-involved/new…
We are extremely pleased the Scottish Government has announced plans to mitigate the impact of the UK government’s 2 child limit to social security support. This is an extremely cruel policy and has resulted in families having to choose between heating and food.
