Sunak’s national service announcement instills sense of ‘hopelessness’ in young people

- “I also want to just talk about young people. Many of them have had a really bad ordeal.”
The Conservative's National Service pledge for the upcoming general election shows that young people in the UK have been ‘let down’, says Baron’s Court Project’s Michael Angus.

“Mandatory volunteering” is an oxymoron. Forced unpaid work is called slavery.
Yep. I bet sunaks kids would get an exemption
It's like at work when you are VolunTold....
The idea of national service isn't a bad one, but yea you can't really call it volunteering.
@@detectiverick9934 its been suggested that the "punishment" for not going is the parent being fined.... so yeah pretty much a "rich people can pay to not do it".
Nothing new to the British !
They’re trying to ban adults from smoking but they want kids on the frontline.

Thank you
First pick on the disabled, now the youngest teenager, awful 😖
Typical Tory policy of going after the weakest in society. Kids, the unemployed, the disabled, asylum seekers, students. They are cowards, just like the cowards who vote for them. Anyone vulnerable is fair game.
This government has failed the next generation. They need housing. Education. Health care. Opportunities. Not unpaid labour.
Also need money, lots of money. Because the world is still suffering a slowdown.
If young generations are not entitled to reasonable access to housing and fair wages, older generations are not entitled to protection.
The lol generation should do their duty, just as generations before them did and generations yet to come will have to do. As for housing etc, that is for the new invaders that the woke have encouraged to come here, not for you. Your job is to pay for their schools, hospitals, power stations and other infrastructure.
Concervative policy: " Let's punish the youth"
And the disabled
Everything and everyone

Good point...
Why stop with National Service for under 18s. Over 60 and retired, welcome to "MandaTORY Mentoring". A weekend a month, going out into community and working...and if you don't they reduce State Pension. Cause this Govt have yet to throw every cruel and unusual policy at the wall and see what sticks yet. They really are just speaking without thinking, off the cuff, policy making now.
Don't give them ideas..
Brilliant idea dean - since the older group seem so in favour of this, let's make everyone do national service retired or not, they need to do their country proud and have valuable skills to pass onto the younger generation 🇬🇧
Sure that won't change their opinions on the matter at all seeing as though the majority never did a day of "national service" in their lives 😂

We had YTS when we was kids. Work for a 1/5 of the wages in a factory. That was Tories too.
Thats not YTS, but I guess thats a demonstration of your ability to recall the disastrous Labour government.
60 hour week sometimes but I usually worked at least 50 hours a week for £110 a week, I worked at a fish farm and my boss was a multi-millionaire. He showed me how to sweep once lol.
@@Stroopwaffe1 in 1996 I was on £23 a week for 40 hours. But it was in a microchip factory so I was happy just being there being a geek.
Mine was in 93-94.
Oh we also had apprenticeships when I was younger in the early 2000s that paid around £1.80 an hour for a 40 hour week (worked out to be £100 a week on the dot which has to cover my travel aka a £72.50 bus pass, and food) which was allowed with it being an apprenticeship, they also now still pay younger workers less than the minimum average and then wonder why they aren't incentivised to rush into work.
Frankly I wouldn't recommend anyone under 21 working unless it's for a company that ignores age wage brackets as it's a fundamental waste of their time.

This smacks of tory desperation. It will end up being free work by kids for the government.
As opposed to free money for no work by the government?

@@mlguy8376like the free money the middle class got to sit on their backsides during COVID and do nothing? While essential workers had to keep working and got zero benefits for it... Oh and equally had to pay extra in the long run to help the country recover from?
Guess this country just doesn't like to reward hard work but instead just funnel the funds to people who do little to nothing in reality 🙂
The poor kids will have to join the army as they can't afford to give up weekends for unpaid work. Rich kids will doubtless be parachuted into the best voluntary jobs that will look good on their CV's, shadowing consultant doctors etc.
@@james970027 well the taxes we pay account for way more in the long run, we get zero benefits as well. Should be more upset with the upper class who really make poorer people pay.

You first, its your idea to visit Ukraine.
If he's so interested in cyber defense why doesn't he join the military? I hate it when people who've never served say they would like to have. Well why didn't you bloody well join then?
They couldn't find uniforms small enough for him.
Young people did their national service when they shielded indoors to protect the older population during the pandemic. They gave up their best years and they did it without complaint
Two years isn’t much , and was totally unnecessary.
Well, my dad did national service in the 50s and I'm pretty sure it was two years... It's a lot of time when you're 17... 2 years at 49 flies by!
This statement speaks more about the strawberry generation than anything else out there.

At 17, I went to University.
I had coursework to do at the weekends - I worked 6 days a week every Christmas and summer holidays while at University (only off on Sundays). Would I have been expected to turn down pay to go and do this?
My daughter's at University now. She's working at the weekends because loans haven't kept pace with inflation. Her living expenses loan doesn't even cover her rent. Is she supposed to give up her weekend job for nothing.;
This is unthought out nonsense from a party that has consistently brought us non-thought out nonsense.
It's completely thought out when you think everyone can afford the occasional unpaid weekend of work.

@@stephenpowers51 you know it's a lot easier to just say you're a racist.
Historically it’s been challenging to get younger people to vote. This policy will certainly motivate 18 year to get out and vote on the 4th July and the overwhelming majority will be against this ill thought out and desperate policy…..
The Tory campaign started poorly and they have managed to make it worse with this policy.
Sunak should be in jail.
Anyone who thinks young people will welcome this scheme is bonkers. If cyber defence is needed then employ people to do it.
"I was really nerdy at 17"
So was I but I needed to be paid so I was working two 12 hour shifts at Sports Direct.
Our entire weekend economy is propped up by 16-18 year olds working minimum wage zero hour contracts.

Lol. Good one.
Work in the homeless sector. We will never accept this. The pressure on already low funding, the paper work and quite frankly the risk of brining completely inexperienced young people to work with vulnerable people is far too high. Not only that due to there younger age potentially dangerous and predatory individuals could be ushered into positions of power over vulnerable people with very little safeguarding due to the pressures on staffing. The British charity sector isn’t this fluffy thing we do serious work with extraordinarily vulnerable people. It’s not all youth cafes and befriending FFS!
Oh so you are saying that the homeless should be avoided because they are all dangerous. Maybe you want them all locked up so that they cant endanger the public. So sad that people like you exist. You should be thinking how people could be trained to help those who have had a difficult time in their life. Its easy to say no, but no does not get anyone anywhere.
Have you thought that trench warfare would help thin out your workload?

At least it makes sure no one aged 18 will vote Tory - another crazy notion !
Unfortunately the most people who don't vote are the younger ones. The coffin dodging boomers hate the youth and they will be filling the polling station's up to condemn the youth
Or parents like my sister, who has a 13 year old daughter and 15 year old son.
Yeah,no disabled people or young people will vote tory, pick on sickest people & youngest people, unbelievable
Tories had already lost my lifelong (60+ years) vote. Forcing my son into national service at a time he is going to be working hard to get a degree is nonsensical and just confirms to me they've completely lost the plot and are continuing their move past the right into the extreme right
Is that what they have said? Or is it Labour speaking?

The only way you can get someone to publicly support any Tory idea is to ask a think tank. They should have to declare their financial backers at the start of every video or tv show they’re on or not be allowed on.
In fact, this particular think tank is just a wing of the Tory Party, so of course they support this idea! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onward_(think_tank)
@@James-gc5if I didn't know that. You know I don't even live in the UK anymore, I haven't for a long time.. in fact I only lived there for a short period of time. I was born there (but moved very young) so I have a British passport.
The only reason I gained an interest in British politics is after Brexit occurred, I wanted to find out what is going on and I've found understanding the British media and political landscape extremely interesting ever since.

Nice idea but which incompetent company will be making billions in tax payers money?
Labour
Probably Rishi's wife and in laws...
I love all the older people that never had to do it and probably have never volunteered to do anything wanting to force this on 18 year olds... who are legally adults. This is an absolutely ridiculous policy.
How will it work, if it's one weekend a month in for example the fire service, a highly skilled profession that requires constant training? Who will supervise these completely untrained, potentially unwilling young adults? Are professionals in front line services expected to also "volunteer" train these people and take time away from their already overstretched jobs... It makes no sense what so ever.
They're too used to interviewers not bothering to ask the details. They say 'trust us it's costed' and no one bothers to ask who's supposed to be in charge of a bunch of teenagers who are facing prison if they don't obey orders. Can't even get schools working properly and they're going to introduce a massive uncosted policy that needs a massive amount of staff to look after teenagers who don't want to be there and are being forced to do unpaid labour. I suppose anyone who can't see the difficulty in that is idiotic enough to vote for the party who allegedly thinks this is so important that they didn't bother with it during the decade plus they had in power and only mentioned it after calling an election and parliament was prorogued.
The nerdy guy would be interested up until day one of basic training.
RISHI PLASE GO WITH YOUR NATIONAL SERVICE IDEAS. PLEASE PLEASE GO.

It's like the last piece of horse manure that the tories are throwing at the wall. It's completely crazy and unworkable.
Young Farquhar de Piffle can always escape by spending the season in the families second estate in the Maldives using one of his many passports.
Brilliant. I forwarded him. Couldn’t listen to his BS
Young Tory grasping at straws. Well done Times, you found the young person that accurately represents the young adults of the nation, lol. C'mon!
On the front page on The Times last week the headline read: police told not to arrest anymore people as the prisons are full up. So who how and what can they enforce??
Here's an idea. All these people on here are slagging off today's youngsters and have never done National Service, make every adult under 60 fighting ready and do a years training. Non compliance fine them £500.
A £500 quid fine would be an astonishing bargain, around 4 days work at minimum wage or a couple of hours for a decent lawyer. Way cheaper than giving up a year of your life.
Community service - but no need to commit a crime first. That's the Conservative party today!
The. Crime is being poor…you silly goose…
Well if that doesn’t get the youngsters voting nothing will.
This isn't designed to appeal to the young adults it will effect, as they won't be voting conservative anyway, it's to shore up the elderly vote that they are currently losing.
The old sending the young to die, no change there
So yet again a young person is just some second class person that should be bullied by the government into doing something against their will. (I am not young). I guess it's time to quote a bully; "I'm big, you're small, you're wrong, I'm right, and there's nothing you can do about it!" - Rishi Trunchbull.
Were you forced to go to school?
@@stewartkingsley Stewart I think that is a fallacy of false equivalence you imply in that some basic education is vital to all people but mandatory national service is only vital to Sunak's election campaign. LOL
@@stewartkingsley Yes. And if I didn't my parents got fined.
All the fuss about this is moot. The crazy party aren't getting back in.
Compulsory community service is a punishment imposed for low-level criminality. What does it say about you if you make everybody do it, and why would it then be a deterrent to crims?
If I was in the military, I would be hugely offended that the Tories equate a years’ military service with 12 weekends’ litter picking.
No our late queen trained as a mechanic
Maybe treat young people like you know, people, instead of consumers and product users maybe they would feel less hopeless. When they leave university, if they get that far, they have a huge debt burden to clear, then extortionate rents to pay as they can't get mortgages and then food bills going up. Supporting corporations is what Tories do but corporations can't vote.
This and previous governments have ignored the British people on many concerning issues but mostly mass immigration legal and illegal. This has caused many people to yes love our country and our values but distrust our politicians who think they know best for us and people now think well why should I possibly put my life in danger when its the politicians who make terrible decisions.
Illegal immigration will increase with Labour. Legal immigration will reduce when people pay more taxes and the unemployed get off their backsides.
Just when you think the Tories haven’t quite reached the limit of swivel-eyes bonkers, they say this. Well done, you are officially even crazier than Reform

If they give me affordable housing. I’m talking affordable 2 bed houses that are 3x the minimum wage tops, that can only be bought by first time buyers then I’d happily volunteer.
This just proves the Tories have given up, they'd never propose this if they thought they'd have to carry it out.
Admiral Alan West, a former chief of the naval staff, said it was a “bonkers” plan which would deplete the defence budget. Richard Dannatt, a former chief of the general staff, said the proposal was “electoral opportunism”. “The costs of this would be considerable in terms of trainers and infrastructure. This task cannot just be imposed on the armed forces as an extra thing to do.”
It’s easy, bring back apprenticeships.
Good idea! Get them ready to fight the boat people.
Get “them” ready. What about yourself?
@@michaelc3051 I am in a wheelchair so will not be any use.
I was an apprentice at the age of 18, on a very small wage. I used to work an extra Saturday every week to make sure I had enough to pay my mother suitable rent, to make sure I could still feed myself and run a car to get to work. If you told me back then after working 6 days a week that I would also work a Sunday! I wouldn't have had the energy or dive to finish my apprenticeship. So I worry for those younger people already in employment or have a family that this will be a responsibility too far!
There aren't any young people who have families to pay for, that's a thing of the past, they can barely meetup outside of the internet for dating. And since apprenticeships are a thing of the past, overworking them is hardly a concern.
But lets not be fooled this isn't about motivation or opportunity, there is something coming and this is how you start to move the public in a militaristic direction.
@@_Melian_Dialogue_ As they say the DEVIL is in the detail.
The strange thing is that the TA is growing currently. All that is going to happen is the kids who join the TA will just do this instead.
Also we currently have 720,000 apprentices in England. I guess that would be a good start to growing a force.
Cybersecurity?! That would require serious security clearance. Which is fine if you're somebody going to work there full time, but it's not going to be cost effective for people working for one weekend a month. It's also a graduate job, not the sort of thing an 18 year old hobbyist gets to do.
I looked up what Seb actually did in the way of unpaid work when he was young. He edited the student newspaper, ran the student radio station, and worked for free in Tory HQ. That's not somebody who cares about public service- that's somebody burnishing their CV for a career in media/politics. I'm genuinely happy it worked for him, but why shouldn't other people be fair to do whatever they want to advance their careers, like he did?
What's wrong with Sunak?
Cackling his head off everywhere.
Seb Payne: "I *WAS *fantastically nerdy..."
I can't...
This morning they announced that Parents of 18 year Adults would face 'sanctions' if they refuse.
No doubt they'll pass a Rwanda-like law rewriting reality in order to block access to the courts.
Why? At 18 they are adults. What has their refusal got to do with their parents?
Cannon fodder for NATO and the profit of the military industrial complex?
Serious point, national service conscripts wouldnt be used for front line combat if the Tories are actually prepping for war.
They'd be used for keeping law and order her after a nuclear attack.
Burning mountains of corpes, rounding up healthy adults into work gangs.
"Bring back national service" was an ancient old chestnut in the 70's-it had no chance then and has even less now. WHY did Sunak dredge this up ? NOBODY has talked about it , there are serious issues that need addressing.......Starmer is equally useless and clueless but this has given Sunak a clear lead in the irrelevant political non issues card.
That the new way to get free labour while politicians are enriching themselves
Who said it was free?
Vote out to help out!
We already have millions of people in this country who volunteer. And who do unpaid caring. This policy is nuts and just more desperate attempts to throw some red meat to the hard right
Cannot stand Sebastian Payne. He is an out-of-touch nerd and hopefully will not make it to the next parliament as an MP.
This will gain very few votes but will lose an awful lot. Brilliant!

Remember the last time that the Conservatives wanted to compel people into volunteering. They said it would only be charities then. What actually happened was that lots of people were forced to work for large chain department stores for free under the threat of sanctions. Make no mistake, this "National Service" policy is window dressing for Workfare 2.0.
Hundreds of thousands of 18 year olds forced to "volunteer" for companies that far from charitable.
Sunak thinking the government can parent your kids better than you can.
Times Radio conspicuously not saying at the end of the clip that the 'children of the corn' interviewee is a former journalist from the Telegraph, Financial Times and the Spectator, or mentioning that Onward is a right wing think tank. He was shortlisted as Tory candidate in Selby & Ainsty and tried for a seat but failed in this election.
He was talking about young people being a resource to be tapped into in such a disgusting way, they are not slaves. Unpaid internships are despised, unpaid voluntary work would fall in the same boat. Make it paid work at least, it's already hard enough to live, let alone buy a house for young people.
A final word on this subject: "National Service never did me no harm!" - DCI Gene Hunt
Well it's not for everyone I went to join up when I was a kid they wanted me but.... it wasnt for me!! It takes a certain type to join....I was far to independent....If kids want to join it should be there choice it was ours! It's a good life and very disciplined but it should be because they want to be there not because there forced.....I have nothing but utter respect for the forces but I personally feel it would be easier for them to train kids that want to be part of them.....
Epilogue - "No"
No national service on Mars!
You weren't sent to Naziville Ukraine
And look what our soldiers fought for everybody else's freedom unfortunately all government DEPARTMENT are failing or failed
This is why they stopped National Service back in the day. The kids didn't want to be there, the army didn't want them there, and it dawned on everyone that millions of conscripted kids peeling potatoes was pointless. 🥔

I’m a pensioner who volunteers with six different organisations, devoting a day per week to each. We do get some young people volunteering, they do this to get something to put on their CVs. But it’s down to us oldies to look after them. Not sure that charities would welcome a massive intake of teenagers to train, occupy, supervise and become responsible for their Health and Safety. So will Charity Bosses who refuse the Scheme go to prison?

Is this a policy for kids to vote Labour?
It’s an election ploy! Who are they appealing to? The older people, who think this is good for young people and vote for it! But they don’t have to deal with it..exactly like Brexit, old people voting against the interests of the young people.
In Germany, we have free education…so there is a give and take! Do kids in UK go to university for free? No, so what are you offering them!
