Not to mention a paycheck and future benefits. I'm probably in the minority but I believe compulsory service for young men and women would clear up societies ills within a few generations. There is no reason youth, especially those in Britian, should be allowed to languish on benefits smoking and drinking their bodies into a ruined state. Reading, writting and arithmetic should be a part of the service, especially for those that chose not to apply themselves in school. Ignorance and sloth are destroying society. There could certainly be an arm of the service for "conscious objectors" so religion wouldn't be an excuse for service. Those folks could easily be used as support digging latrines etc., or repairing infrastructure if they had a skill or are able to be trained. Be a part of the solution or just step off a building.
