Sorry but I strongly disagree. Regardless of whether the outcome of national service is positive or negative, the government should not be able to impose stuff like this on people. I don't want a bunch of suits in Westminster giving my son two options that he can choose from when he turns 18. I want him to be able to decide for himself and own the consequences.
