Rejected petition Bring back a form of National Service for our young men

More details

We believe that a form of National Service should be re-introduced as soon as possible.

This would teach our young people discipline, responsibilityand give them an opportunity to serve their country in a meaningful way.
Other benefits are:- It would create employment for teenagers.
It would supplement our Armed Forces when they are so stretched.
It would offer possible careers to some who otherwise would not have them.
