Ido feel for most of the young people who cant find work , but lets bring into the equasion the fact that when some of us on this site left school we were allowed to take a job anywhere without the constraints of some of the stupid rules and regulations that are prevelent and hinder companys from taking them on also the demise of manufacturing doesnt help . furthermore at the age of 18 the armed forces were thereto pick up the slack. Ontop of that we have had a massiveincrease in the population exasipated by the influx of young Immigrants Yes as a 79 year old i feel sosorry for the future of our young people.

The left hand of ’The Government’ are going on about Youth Unemployment and asking what to do about it. They are spending money to try and create jobs.

The right hand is increasing the retirement age and therefore older people are working longer.

Why not reduce the retirement age and create jobs for the Youth of today.

As for National Service, I don’t think this would solve anything.

The modern youth (not them all) has no self discipline or respect for others and even themselves. They argue with the authorities so what would stop them doing the same on NS?

A few rounds of the barrack square would soon sort them out. If they argue, make them carry a >303 at arms length in front of them while doubling. Then if they want to argue further, send them out with a .303 held above the head and doing bunny hops around the camp. Sod this PC and ’uman rights rubbish.....
