I've got a bra that gives that effect, too.

We already have national service in this country

It's a world-view that sees other people's children - pretty sure the middle-classes will find a way to prevent their own kids from fucking up their gap year in Vietnam with this - as units to be moved around and plug the holes in public provision austerity & Brexit caused.

Shall we start by bringing back not having alarms on cheese and then work up from there?

Every time I see a bee, I murmur, “You know I got an assortment”

Given that there seems to be no actual policy detail on this announcement, I think it's more ... notional service.
Thank you. Thank you for listening to my joke.

When you had an extraordinary searchable global information resource but Sam Altman persuaded you to turn it into sludge

Rather than getting 18-year-olds to do National Service, get them to run your comms-tech. No Gen Z kid would do something this old and dumb. They can show you how to use your Sky remote at the same time.

Interesting point from Alex Andreou here that national service can facilitate a whole lot of low level corruption as the privileged try to get their kids out of it (as he’s seen happen in Greece). Quiet Riot feeds.megaphone.fm/quietriot

Or a simpler message, from a greater philosopher: Young Guns - go for it!

Or, as I call it, 'Bradford and Bingley Go To Heaven.'

Ah yes the young are living in a bubble cut off from the real world. Anyway here’s the prime minister asking a homeless person if they have their own business.

Okay, credit where it’s due – nice one gen alpha/gen z

Right then lovely people fancy a day out campaigning. There will be loads to do and we will make it suit you. I promise it will be fun. TO BE CLEAR IT IS VOLUNTARY NOT MANDATORY AND NO PARENTS WILL BE FINED. jessphillips.org/volunteer

Didn't the NHS save your life?

Again - how dare a government that has cut funding for 16-19 education by 15%, cut youth services by 70%, whacked up student loan repayments, overseen record rises in rents, and cut unemployment/housing benefits say this stuff?
