This was really disappointing Keir Starmer again ruling out ending the two child benefit cap Beth Rigby explains the wealth tax Keir Starmer used to champion before would easily pay for this and end the cap Keir Starmer ignores this and talks about the damage done to our economy... by the Conservatives Keir Starmer is making a choice not to tax the rich - something he advocated for before, and because of that he can't afford to end the two child benefit cap Very disappointingshow more

I think you’ve been sideswiped by a politician giving an honest answer. The money’s not there. Don’t promise it if you can’t deliver it. #ToryTrap

If you can't afford to feed your children why are you having more than 2 and expecting other people to fund your lifestyle - what a pathetic criticism of Keir Starmer

If you can’t afford to support your children, stop having them. Us tax payers are not here to support your lifestyle choice of having multiple children. No one gives me a pay out for mine & my husband’s choice to have a dog & her insurance is sky high. Take responsibility

If you choose to have 3+ kids, you should have the ability to provide for them

Beth Rigby became almost unprofessional / smarty pants at times.... "her" show

Can’t afford them stop breeding

400k children affected by the cap, 4.4m living in poverty. For the few not the many gesture policies are crap.

Sir Keir is not promising and no lies

Good. Why should the government and taxpayers pay for someone else's kids? If they couldn't afford to have them in the first place, they should have either abstained or used contraception.

Or maybe he’s avoiding the obvious bear traps that would give the Tory’s a foot in the door to reverse the momentum on this election.
