Should the government use tomorrow's Budget to abolish the two-child benefit cap?

The tax system is dysfunctional. It taxes workers more than the wealthy and it's riddled with inefficiencies. Tomorrow's Budget is a chance to fix that.

Closing tax loopholes isn't bad for growth - it boosts efficiency and protects demand. The chancellor can raise tens of billions by targeting unfair wealth, landlords, banks and gambling companies, without hurting GDP. @rachaelhenry.bsky.social for @lbc.co.uk πŸ‘‡

Really value this feedback Antonia. Thank you. It’s so important for us to clarify that we certainly don’t mean to be flip about jobs - we want the government to make sure these jobs are safe. I know how crucial decent jobs like these are. And how worrying the prospect of job losses is for people.
