Spoons chief Tim Martin
WETHERSPOONS boss Tim Martin has been blasted for backing Nigel Farage’s pub aid plans which would leave hundreds of thousands of kids trapped in poverty.
The Reform UK leader promised boozers a £3billion support package if his party came to power - paid for by restoring the two-child benefit cap.
Labour is ending the cap, introduced by the Tories in 2017, which will lift 450,000 children out of poverty by 2029.
