What the petition asks

The National Service Act 1948 was abolished after world war 2 but then the country changed these children on the 20th and 21st century are causing criminal damage committing theft and alsorts of different crimes if we re introduce national service
it will stop alot of crime and save money for the police force the country is in turmoil with the amount of crime I think the age range should be from 16 to 25 it should be compulsory to eliminate any threat or danger to society this should have regulations put in place to allow blank rounds and replica ammunition and weaponry with strict discipline this would benefit the elder generation and encorouge strong discipline to our communitys with these youth of the 21st centry not understanding a strict ethos in this country
