Petition Long term unemployed should lose the right to vote
More details
Anyone who has been unemployed for more than two years should lose the right to vote in all UK elections. This is based on the premise that only taxpayers should have a say on how their taxes are spent and could also act as an incentive for those who choose to not work to get back into employment.
