‘Conscription Again in Britain’: Rishi Sunak Makes Election Promise After Russian Strike Warning
UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak plans to reintroduce mandatory national service if re-elected, requiring all 18-year-olds to join the military or volunteer monthly with community organizations.
This £2.5 billion initiative aims to foster national pride and bridge societal divides.
Critics argue it's a costly response to Conservative cuts in troop numbers.
The proposal follows escalating UK-Russia tensions.
