Petition Benefit reform

More details

Abolish benefit 'freebies',thus making benefit recipients pay for these services via their benefit payments instead of receiving them for 'free' on top of these payments.
i.e dental charges,free perscriptions,free optical charges,free school dinners etc(there are probably more than just these four)..should be abolished as payment for these kinds of services can be made with the benefit cash already received from the gov.It is wrong to give these things for free as this destroys the incentive to get onself off benefits and into work.
