Rejected petition Replace Benefits with Food Vouchers

More details

It sickens me that certain people on certain benefits freely get luxurious items that I work hard to earn. Benefits should not be a way of life but a means to get by when things are tough. Not for them to live a life of luxury. Why should hard working individuals pay for people on benefits luxury items when the average working person can't even afford them for themselves?
To stop this, give benefit claiments food vouchers / energy tokens instead of money.
