    Surely now is best time to have a national service for all. This can plug employment gaps short term and work as supporting care in community.. Hospital support.. Military civil servant support.. Introduce ppl for limited time to different skills n trades they never knew they might enjoy. Not to exploit ppl but rally work team UK together for good of all. Those who security wise fit to join our armed services in its many trades have an apprenticeship introduction. NORTHERN IRELAND for example desperate for tradional trades. Carpentry. Plumbing. Electrician.. General labouring. With a national service it will catch all those ppl who eu/migrant stayed. True introduction to UK. Its ppl. What it expects.

    This economic expert has no idea what he is talking about. The reason the UK is in trouble is too much Public spending and too much Tax for the last 2 decades.

    Inflation for the poorest 20% of people has hit 20%.

    Minimum wage increases but they've frozen the threshold for tax so will low earners just pay that extra money back to the treasury?
