Badenoch says rivals back 'unlimited child support'

KEMI Badenoch has accused the Labour and Reform leaders of asking people to "fund unlimited child support for others" by scrapping the two-child cap.

Writing in the Daily Mail, the Tory leader accused Sir Keir Starmer and Nigel Farage of engaging in a "race to the bottom" on welfare.

She said: "Apparently, Starmer and Farage now believe in getting taxpayers many of whom are struggling to raise their own children or choosing not to have them in the first place to fund unlimited child support for others.

"That's not fair, it's not sustainable and it's not even compassionate.

"Welfare traps people, builds dependency and it drives up costs for everyone."
