Petition Make it impossible to claim benefits totalling more than the minimum wage

Nobody on benefits should be able to claim more money per month than a person working full time in a minimum wage job.

How do we expect people to find work if they would be worse off working than on benefits.

Exceptions to this rule should only be made to disabled and elderly people.
