Rejected petition Bring Back National Service

More details

In the wake of what has recently happend in London and other Cities around the UK it is clear that there is something gravely wrong with the young society of today.

The government needs to give serious consideration to bringing back national service from the age of 18 for all those no longer in full time education or paid employment.

Not only would it isntil the discipline they so desperately need it will provide young adults with the chance to make something of their lives and give back to the communities they are from.
