- Matt Goodwin, a former Reform candidate, has suggested that British families with more than two children should receive more favourable mortgage rates.
- This follows previous controversial proposals by Goodwin, including a 'negative child benefit tax' for those without children, which he now denies advocating for directly.
- Goodwin also previously called for women and young girls to be given a 'biological reality' check regarding fertility, stating many women are having children 'much too late in life'.
- He defended his latest suggestion by stating that providing benefits to families with more children is an established principle in several European countries.
- Labour Party chair Anna Turley criticised Goodwin's proposal, linking it to other controversial remarks made by Reform candidates regarding women.
