As a former soldier I looked into this quite closely⌠itâs 30000 for one-year into the military.
Total regular army is 75000 and reserve 30000. Recruit intake each year is currently 10000. Who is going to train them? Where are they going to live?
The whole thing is very poorly thought out. It combines the Nordic disposition for military service with the French Macron concept of âle volunteerâ. However, the Nordic countries are defence focused and donât conduct military actions in foreign lands⌠are National Service conscripts exempt from service overseas.? Original National Service personnel saw service in Korea and Aden as well as other hot spots with 300+ being killed. Good luck with that in the media.
The only plus is it forces a chat about rights and obligations of citizens (que Darth). But these young people lost out on three years of their lives being locked down on COVID measures to protect older adults. Itâs the same Boomers who then tell them they are work-shy scroungers and should âdo a spell in the armyâ while they are living in ÂŁ1 million houses they bought for 50p in the South-East who have watched a few too many episodes of Dads Army.

lol - short lived.
Yes. I can only imagine thatâs because old people vote in the status quo. The wonderful lie (though simplified) that pensions go up with the RPI but your working wages canât go up above CPI says it all.
