i think that people who receive benefits should have a food voucher instead of just cash,this way children will be able to eat better and the parents can not spend it on cigarettes and alcohol

yeah that could be an option for the future, who knows what might happen, only time will tell. if they do can it be decent voucers
what the fuck is this, world war 2? no! no it bloody shouldnt! why dont they give us vouchers for breathing air too?
no why should be people be dictated to when they are already in bad circumstances some shops dont have what you need and others may not accept your vouchers this crap happened with the old school uniform coupons
yes the basic needs should be covered in vouchers food vouchers toiletry vouchers so that the person recieving them cannot spend it on fags, scratch cards, hair cut when it was meant for nappies or food
no people have different needs and should be free to choose, but benefits could do with an increase as i think they only get about 60 quid a week now.
that is very volotile issue ok you are saying i should get a food voucher instead of benefits, i am retired through ill health and my wife works hard full time, by disability allowance goes a lot on household bills my wifes income on food and clothes, mortgage and two children so what use would a food voucher be,nothing for me to buy a present for the wife now and again? sorry i am ranting yes there are people who live entirely on benefits and a lot through no fault of there own
the way things are going this is what will likely be happening in the future,getting more like the americans all the time
No there are already too many obese people on benefits, we should help them get to work and exercise more.
no, there is a still a stigma, with vouchers, a better way is to have a credit type card which can only be used in food stores or certain shops,
no people would find this hard,they already took the school clothes vouchers off them and dont need any less
