It would be a fine thing if we could all spend a compulsory year of our lives doing community work. This would, I am quite convinced, weld us indelibly to the magnificent fibres our now-faded country, the glue of which would, no doubt, turn Brown's broken Britain into Brown's fixed Britain. No one could ever possibly resent such a noble task and what's more, numerous studies have shown that in countries with national service, large-scale fraud is reduced by an almost unbelievable 94% and social cohesion is up 68%. This is an effect that can almost certainly only be attributed to national service, which we should therefore definitely immediately install. Oh and by the way, in case you didn't realise, I was being sarcastic. What are you studying anyway Healy, Fool Studies? I would like to commend Mr Healy on a wonderful and well thought-through idea.
