We need to be talking about Child Poverty in Nuneaton during this election. We have over 3,000 living in child poverty in Nuneaton and that is not useful. If elected I will speak out on the issue and try to get 2 child limit on child benefit scrapped and push for higher minimum wage. The stats show around 68% of Child Poverty is in working households.
