We the undersigned what the instant reintroduction of
National Service: Compulsory military service requiring all citizens and those wishing to gain entry into the United Kingdom, to participate for a minimum period of a year between the ages of 18 and 25.

for those that are conscientious objectors they should be used as a 'humanitarian force' to assist with aid projects both foreign and domestic.

We insist to the Coalition Government that this needs to be implemented now and without prejudice.
