Whilst the nation has been distracted
by the G20 meeting in Russia, David Cameron's Syrian vote, the X
factor and other sporting events; the Conservative party of Great
Britain are introducing compulsory national service for all 18-26
year olds.
Mr Philip Hollobone |
Bill 32 has been put before Parliament
by Tory MP for Kettering Mr Philip Hollobone and supported by Stewart
Jackson MP for Peterborough.
The BILL will provide a system of
national service for young persons; and for connected purposes (–
whatever the means-) decided by the Secretary of State.
Every individual aged between 18 years
and 26 years, will be liable to serve one year of national service at
some point between these years unless the individual is severely
mental or physical disabled.
Anyone who doesn't serve their national
service will be guilty of an offence.
'National Citizen Service,' as it'll be
called will include four elements—
- Further education for individuals who don't reach the basic standards of maths and reading.
- Coaching and instruction to get fit, behave, look smart, build self respect and respect for others.
- Teach individuals how to budget for themselves, pay their household bills, what to eat and cook, how to keep on time, and survive. How to be tolerate towards others and how to treat the elderly and disabled people with dignity and respect.
- Teach individuals the basic's of the law in relation to the most common offences involving young people.
The National Service Bill will provide
accommodation and cover the travelling costs, whilst paying the
national adult minimum wage to all 18-26 year olds to either:
- Work for charity or social action organizations.
- Care for the elderly or disabled.
- Travel overseas to help developing countries.
- Work as a cleaner or porter in a hospital
- Join the Police service, ambulance service or the Army/Navy/Air Force.
Everyone who successfully completes one
year of national service shall be presented with a 'National Service
Certificate' which will entitle them to a lifetime income tax rate
personal allowance 10 per cent above the personal allowance that
would otherwise apply to anyone who doesn't serve for their nation.
The Bill introduced to Parliament on
it's first step to becoming law, has been put forward as 1of 3 by
Kettering MP Mr Hollobone.
The other bills are for the UK to leave
the European Community and the second is for facial coverings to be
banned in public.
