Rejected petition Intriduction of National Service for all School leavers

More details

All students leaving school should undertake a 1-2 year placement in the HM Forces. It would encourage citizenship, self-worth, respect for others and for our country.
In a time of economic constraints it would also help by providing employment, housing where needed and a sound rounding off of the students education.
