Budget Difficulties
Readers already knew that the budget would be tough, as employees would have to pay more to support millions of people receiving aid. Yesterday their fears were confirmed: Rachel Reeves announced the cancellation of payment limits for two children, which could bring thousands of pounds to families each year.
