Rejected petition Convicted UK rioters to face justice by correcting/rebuilding the damage they have caused

More details

Removing convicted rioters benefits will do nothing more than make the situation worse. However, these people do need to be brought to justice for their crimes. The only way they are to learn to respect their society, and the community in which they live is to rebuild and go some way to correcting the damage they have caused. Prison sentencing and benefit withdrawal are not the right answer.
