The Benefit Cap has only ever had one increase in line with inflation since being introduced. @mikebrewerecon.bsky.social explains how this freeze in nominal terms is contributing to child poverty, with the cap becoming tighter in real terms as the cost of living increases.

What should the Government do to tackle child poverty? Join us next Wednesday to discuss with Carey Oppenheim, @aaronreeves.bsky.social, @alexclegg.bsky.social & @mikebrewerecon.bsky.social Register here 👉 https://buff.ly/41g9wF8
