One Parent Families Scotland said the 'draconian' cap 'must be abolished as a matter of urgency'
Nearly 60 per cent of families punished by the “cruel” two child benefit cap introduced by the Tories are in work.
Scots party boss Anas Sarwar said he would press Starmer to change tack and MSPs lined up to criticise the move. “A shocking 55% of children in working lone parent households with 3 or more children are living in poverty.” According to research commissioned by the SNP, the cap affected more than 80,000 children in Scotland in the last year.
Scottish politics SNP MP David Linden said: “The damning analysis from One Parent Families Scotland reveals the unvarnished truth of Westminster's austerity agenda and exposes that Scotland needs independence to deliver a fair and more equal society.
