Rejected petition Stop benefits for those who have never worked!

More details

When people work & then require to claim Job Seekers allowance are they only allowed to claim maximum 3 months, but people who have never worked and sign on from leaving school can stay on this for as long as they like. The rules should be the same for everybody....if somebody has not found a job after 3 months, their benefits should be stopped!!!!
