General Election: What does the public think about Rishi Sunak's National Service policy?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 май 2024
- In the Conservatives' first policy announcement of the general election campaign, Rishi Sunak said on Saturday he would introduce a new form of mandatory National Service for 18-year-olds if his party wins the vote in July.
Under the proposed policy, the Tories say 18-year-olds would be given the choice of a full-time military placement for 12 months or a scheme to volunteer for one weekend a month for a year.

Not for rishis daughters though, of course.

All adults voting for this should be required to do it too.

So they can find £2.5 billion for national service to give young people 'opportunities' but couldn't find £2.5billion for crumbling schools or sure start centres 🤔
Schools are crumbling because of dead beats in society. Time to get everyone out of bed. Get the standards up
Some will be unemployed so will be cost less than specified
It will reduce military costs

Certain classes will effectively be excluded, by design. The Tories only look after the upper classes. Nothing has changed in 100 years.
If they suddenly found 2.5bn behind the sofa and they want to help young people, just put it into the education system.

But national service gets stuck of old men who never did a day of national service in their lives get up and vote on polling day to stop the softy youths

Most young people have very little money and need to work. Making them volunteer for one weekend per month for a year is basically making them work unpaid for 24 days. This policy will be a disaster for Rishi, as it will encourage most young people to vote against him.

@@eyesodd but those old people that are still alive today, that were born after 1939 never had to do national service. Yet they want the young enslaved now.
In malaysia we had compulsary national service. It was a waste of time for most youths that had done it and it was ultimately a front for the government to siphon away taxpayer dollars as well as cherry pick companies to set up and run the programme.
That's why rishi wants to do it
Compulsory unpaid work = slavery. Young people are free to volunteer, being forced by the state is unacceptable.

My father just missed out on National Service and would have been in his early 80s if he was alive today. The idea that anyone below the age of 85 could have any kind of nostalgia for it is patently absurd. It's always the jingoistic armchair generals who think they won WWII despite not being born yet that get so misty eyed, remembering battles they saw on the silver screen whilst convincing themselves they were there.
