This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Rejected petition Benefits for a maximum of two children for the jobless.
More details
Benefits of all kinds for the jobless should be limited to paying for an average family with a maximum of 2 children including the size of any council house. Any jobless persons taking the decision to have more than two children should then pay for any extra costs themselves including re-housing.
Why should we as taxpayers pay for other people to have large families and free council houses while we struggle working every day paying our own way through life barely making ends meet from day to day.
