Part of 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 1:38 pm on 11 October 2022.
Well, I just think that's ridiculous. On this International Day of the Girl Child, perhaps Liz Truss should reflect on what we teach our children about the importance of open dialogue and debate. When you do manage to catch her, would you press the Prime Minister for an answer on the three cost-of-living actions the devolved administrations are calling for: the £25 uplift to all means-tested benefit, abolition of the benefit cap and the two-child limit, and an urgent campaign to boost benefit take-up? These actions would immediately ease the burden on many households in my region and prevent tens of thousands more people in this country from falling into poverty.
