Petition Action

1 year compulsory national or public service for all young adults

Additional Information

Introduce compulsory national or public service for all young adults in the UK. Give school/college leavers the choice or serving their country either in the military, or through a range of public service jobs (local councils, national parks etc) to give them vital work experience, a potential career, and instill a sense of accountability. Non-compliance could result in benefits being witheld in the future, and an option to buy your way out could be a potential source of funding?
