Jenrick and Braverman vote FOR the abolition of the two child limit while the other four Reform MPs vote against - and of course Farage doesn't even bother turning up to do his job". The party's Commons blunder came as Labour's draft law to scrap the two child benefit - passed its first parliamentary hurdle last night.
