Rejected petition Teens to do national service for 2 years. UK

More details

I would like to see national service brought to the UK instead of having out of work teens running about the streets causing chaos.

After doing 2 years of national service they have to go to college from the age of 18 to the age of 21 fully qualified to go into the community & be a valued member to society.

There is hundreds of jobs in the army/navy/raf not just running about with a gun. they can fit into real life & come out full of respect, self esteem & an understanding of how to to act in life & treat each other as humans.
