Petition Benefit Service Reform

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 benefits cut.

Also the payments being issued should be vouchers redeemable for food, gas and electric to ensure all benefits are being sent correctly.
