Rejected petition Eradicate gangs and crime by making work the only viable life option

More details

Too many UK citizens sneer at the idea of doing a regular job. The reason for this is that there are too many easy alternatives such as theft, drug dealing and a soft benefit system. Divert money from the benefit system to create jobs and apprenticeships. Reform the police to allow them to tackle drugs and theft.
