Still dripping as theBritish rain continues to drench Sunak, he announces Mandatory National Service. the same old reasoning that all of us have discussed so many times. all about diverting young adults "away from unemployment and crime" . "The national service would require young people to either join the military full-time or volunteer one weekend a month in community service." so this is supposed to build up reserves of soldiery for military action.... or the person can choose to do one weekend a month helping out at Lifeline used clothing shops. yes I can see how this will turn the nation around. is this an idea that we should adopt? I doubt any will disagree.

Many countries have NS Scott, eg Sth Korea, Switzerland and I have always supported the idea even from my school days. I think it is in the interest of the country in a number of ways eg, discipline for the youth and supplementary protection of the country.
