Petition Action

People convicted of rioting should not have all benefits stopped

Additional Information

if you go to prison you lose benefits- as a lot of rioters people will be going to prison, this rather cancels out the need benefits to be removed, as what is being requested will already happen.

if people like this lose benefits and are not sent to prison, they will just turn to crime in order to have money.

and if they don't go to prison they will get community service and, frequently curfews, which are punishments.

Hence, punishment should be kept separate from payment of benefits
