What age group would conscription cover?
One was eligible for National Service upon reaching the age of 18 years, but if one was at University or taking an apprenticeship, they could be deferred until they became 21 years.
But if they were to re-introduce it now, surely anyone could could become eligible at any reasonable age, after 18 years, and there would be no reason in this age of sexual equality, why females could not also be conscripted.
What about all the idle females who just sit eating pizzza and kebabs whilst awaiting the triumphant birth of yet another child to yet another father from the council estate on which she lives.
Simple, they could do their National Service in a Female only environment, they wouldn't have the choice then of getting pregnant with a multitude of fathers.
Forgive me if the italic conversion doesn't take place once again, blame it on the new site.
