UK Home Secretary James Cleverly stated that there would be no jail time for those refusing Tory's proposed "mandatory" national service plans. The plans, announced by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, promise that 18-year-olds will either join the military for 12 months or participate in volunteer work one weekend a month for a year. Sunak states that the policy aims to unite society in an "increasingly uncertain world" and give young people a "shared sense of purpose."
