Absolute fortunes have been spent on all sorts of Consultations, Commissions, Committees, Advisory Boards and Think Tanks to come up with solutions for the woes of today's Great Britian.
In my opinion there is a single simple solution to numerous of Britain's problems !!
NATIONAL SERVICE !!
If 2 Years National Service were re-introduced it would provide a solution to Youth Unemployment, it would instill a respect for authority that has been lost, it would teach youngsters discipline and give them a work ethic by providing a structure to their daily life and it would also give many a direction for a trade after their service.
If the National Service was compulsory then it would also discourage those wishing to migrate to Britain as a soft option, thus reducing costs to the Benefits System, the National Health Service and the Education System and also increase the Social Housing stock.
Having done their Nation Service the youngsters should return back into civilian life with discipline, respect and a work ethic, so this should also help to prepare for a working life and help reduce crime.
And of course it would provide Britain's dwindling Armed Forces with a boost in numbers; instead of using Territorial Army personnel that have to be taken out of their normal civilian jobs while the do a tour of duty, which puts a strain on the employers who have to cope without their staff during these tours of duty. There would also be those who will find that their National Service is just a taster for a military career.
