What do you think of the news of the new taskforce and child poverty unit?

I think the Child poverty task force is a good thing, and I am happy that it has been set up.

However, even though I'm happy that it's been set up, I'm also sad that we even have to have a child poverty task force in the first place, because we are one of the richest countries in the world.

One of the changes I'd like to see them tackle is the 2 child limit cap- I think they need to remove it, as I believe it has played a significant role in the increase in child poverty in the UK.
