SNP Westminster leader Stephen Flynn has urged Prime Minister Keir Starmer to address child poverty by scrapping the two-child benefit cap and convening a four-nation summit this summer. Flynn emphasized the need for immediate action, citing the UK's poor standing among European countries due to Westminster cuts and Brexit. The SNP's proposal includes raising universal credit by £26.70 per child weekly to match Scottish payments. Despite intentions to remove the cap, financial constraints pose a challenge for the UK Government, leading to potential rebellions and amendments in Parliament. Collaboration among governments and parties is crucial to combat child poverty effectively.
