Bridget Phillipson: “I’ve had to fight tooth and nail” The deputy leadership candidate on her cabinet battles and why she believes in the socialism of freedom

EXCLUSIVE: Bridget Phillipson: 'As Deputy Leader, I will make fighting child poverty my main priority - everything is on the table including removing the two-child limit' - LabourList Bridget Phillipson, running to be Labour deputy leader, says removing two-child limit "is not off the table" to tackling child poverty.

We won’t achieve our party’s historic mission of tackling child poverty by shouting from the side lines.

It won’t happen unless there is someone with the clout – and the mandate — to make it happen.
