Henry Hassell asked Sunak, ‘Why do you hate young people so much?’ after the prime minister announced a plan to enforce mandatory national service if the Conservatives are elected in July. Sunak responded with ‘You’ll have a choice’ and ‘You’ll love it!’ when Hassell said he has already spent his life volunteering. The plans will force every 18-year-old in the country to spend time in a competitive, full-time military commission, or one weekend a month volunteering in ‘civil resilience’.

Rishi Sunak suggests young people might face sanctions for refusing national service
Rishi Sunak has indicated that young people might face restrictions on access to finance or driving licences if they refuse to do national service, as he faced a TV quizzing from voters. Asked during a BBC Question Time special what sanctions people could face for declining to take part in the Conservative policy of compulsory national service for all 18-year-olds, the prime minister pointed to 'driving licences, or the access to finance, all sorts of other things'

Rishi Sunak pledges to bring back national service
Sweden, Norway and Denmark have all recently reintroduced some form of National Service, and France is too.
(Subscribe: https://bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
Now, months after the head of the army said Britain should train up a "citizen army" ready to fight a war, Rishi Sunak is proposing 12 months of mandatory national service.
Labour has criticised the pledge as "desperate" and "only needed because the Tories hollowed out the armed forces".

General Election: What does the public think about Rishi Sunak's National Service policy?
In the Conservatives' first policy announcement of the general election campaign, Rishi Sunak said on Saturday he would introduce a new form of mandatory National Service for 18-year-olds if his party wins the vote in July.
Under the proposed policy, the Tories say 18-year-olds would be given the choice of a full-time military placement for 12 months or a scheme to volunteer for one weekend a month for a year.
