Proceeding contribution from Harriett Baldwin (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 8 December 2025. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Child Poverty Strategy.
Child Poverty Strategy
Last year, the Secretary of State, her Front-Bench colleagues and pretty much everyone behind her voted against lifting the two-child benefit cap—[Hon. Members: “No, we didn’t.”] Those who rebelled had the Whip withdrawn. What would she say to those rebels now? What has changed since that vote last year?
