I didn't suggest the old form of National Service, in the Armed Forces, for that reason of extra aggressive skills. Thought that jobs like, assistant porters in Hospital, seeing the effects of Sat night excesses and accidents etc. might do them some good.

But it may be that if the Armed Forces are to get the suggest recently announced cuts, the government will probably not be able to rely on the part time units. One article I read suggested there isn't enough of the part time units up to strength or sufficiently trained to fill the emergency roles the government thinks they can fill. National service units might just be required to fulfil those roles, and they could also do the covering for things, like dustmens or fire fighters stikes, enabling the professionals to keep doing the jobs they are paid for.

Here's some work for those convicted - I'd call it "Poetic Justice"

Because of the Olympic games, London security has been tightened to probably its highest level since WWII, witness the armed patrol boats on the Thames and other measures being taken. If it happens again, the police will act first and ask questions afterwards.

..so they'll open fire will they (shades of Kent University)? Since when has our police force become military personnel?

Start down this road & there'll be no turning back!

A year on from the riots, the lesson is clear: prison works

Maybe so, but this guy doesn't think so.....
