Rejected petition Drugs test for all benefit claimants like US

More details

Drugs test all benefit claimants like the US are and disallow those that fail....there are too many people claiming benefit to fund illicit drug use who have come to rely on taxpayers money as an easy way to fuel their habit. The country is losing millions of pounds. We need to ensure that taxpayers money is used to help those in genuine need and not fuel drug habits at the countries expense.
