Rejected petition Bring back National Service to the UK.
Rejected on
Due to the increase in knife crime and overall behavioural errors in the UK, National Service should be put into place.
With correct military discipline, it will not only rectify young, rebellious individuals but also give them a real reason to appreciate this country and appreciate what the Armed Forces are currently doing for our lives and what they did for us previously.
