Rejected petition National Service

More details

To consider the reintroduction of National Service for British Citizens aged 18 - 25 years.
There appears to be a lack of discipline and self discipline in the lives of many young people as illustrated by the recent Tottenham riots. The reintroduction of National Service would help to address this whilst providing our young people with a sense of purpose and pride in themselves and their country.
