Richard Foord MP sides with Labour to push unlimited benefits spending.

Benefits bill goes up

Yesterday, Lib Dems voted with Labour AGAIN.

This time, to foot the ever-bloating benefits bill by scrapping the two-child benefit cap.

Your local MP, Richard Foord, rarely attends votes in Parliament- but he did this time… to back Labour.

It wasn’t just the Lib Dems backing Labour yesterday. Reform UK’s latest recruits, Suella Braverman and Robert Jenrick, also backed lifting the cap. Reform’s indecisiveness on the issue shows they can’t even police a party of eight MPs- let alone run the Government.

Only the Conservatives are committed to keeping the benefits bill down, keeping the cap, and keeping your taxes down.

The Lib Dems, Labour and Reform want your taxes to go up.
