It is often said that having children - and claiming taxpayer support in the form of maternity pay, schooling etc. - is somehow ‘selfish’. It’s not. Having a child is one of the most self-less things you can do for society. Here’s why: BBC Radio 5 Live Nicky Campbell

No one is more penalised Camilla Tominey in the tax and benefits than single earner married parents where a parent, usually the mother, takes the hard choice to stay at home to bring up her children herself & NOT outsource to state subsidised third part child care

It the most depressing article I have read in long time. Clearly Camilla Tominey seems to have no problem with 76% of mothers with dependent children working. I do. The conservative solution did they know it is child tax allowances and transferable tax allowance for single

one final postscript to my rant - mothers and fathers are not the same and no replaceable - there is a reaon for biology! An infants need for his or her mother especially in the ealy years is quite different to its realtionship to its father or grandparent for that matter. It's

Very disappointing that the Chancellor has scrapped the one and only pro-family tax policy introduced by the last government, a change I and many others campaigned for for years. Britain now likely has least favourable tax system for families in Europe. gbnews.com/money/budget-2…

The Chancellor has scrapped the only pro-family tax reform implemented by the last goverment. Absurdly, she claims this reform would have harmed single parent families. But the opposite is true. So how badly does UK tax system penalise families? 🧵 1/ telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/11/0…

So many people still think declining birth rates are a good thing. Before we can begin to increase fertility rates, we must first - 1. Reject the lie that the world is overpopulated & 2. Understand the catastrophic consequences of population decline. mol.im/a/14156319

The early years are indeed the most significant years of a child’s life. But surely the more important question is why is the State paying £15 000 a year to separate babies from their mothers? Why not use the cash to support families rather than breaking them up?

Stephen Morgan MP Coram PACEY Where is the research showing being placed in formal childcare gives children the BEST start in life? This mantra, being used left, right & centre, causes such damage by undermining the key role, responsibilities & abilities of a primary care giver.

The more we roll out institutional childcare, the worse the ‘school readiness’ crisis becomes. Yet ‘experts’ claim solution is even more childcare. Perhaps it’s the high-stress mummy-deprived environment of daycare that’s causing the developmental delays?! tes.com/magazine/news/…

'Without stable relationships, people don't have children.' Edward Davies suggests stable relationships have a correlation with the number of children in a family as falling birth rates spark calls for state-backed childcare.
