Closed scrap benefits for long term unemployed

Closed on

I have nothing against genuine unemployed people, but its time all benefits including free council houses are scrapped for lazy people who are long term unemployed and refuse to work and this also includes one parent families who have multiple children to fund there lifestyle in cases like this child benefit should be limited to the first two children and nothing after this as the country and decent hardworking people cannot afford to pay for lazy people who are of no benefit what so ever to society.
