Petition Mandatory drug testing for all benefits claimants, and cutting benefits for those that test positive.
More details
As a British taxpayer, I feel it morally wrong for the benefits my tax provides to be spent on drugs.
It's well known a large proportion of benefits claimants are on drugs, and use their benefits to pay for those drugs.
I propose mandatory, or at least random drug testing for benefits claimants.
Those that test positive should have cuts introduced to their benefits.
This will undoubtedly save the country money, and send a message that taxpayers will not pay for your drug usage.
