Rejected petition Bring Back National Service for 18+

Bring back the two years compulsory military service that can be done after you turn 18 (Can defer your call to finish education / studies) However this time include it for both male and female.

More details

There has been an increase of antisocial behaviour and knife crime in recent years which has put a lot of people at risk and just a general annoyance to the public. By bringing back the National Service it will hopefully decrease the amount of criminal behaviour by enforcing a level of discipline and respect for others.
