A think tank backed by Penny Mordaunt has called for the reintroduction of National Service
No one born on or after October 1st 1939 has done National Service in the UK. The people who fetishise it were too young to do as teenagers and too old to do it now

Whipping ourselves into a fury about the alleged activities of a #BBCpresenter is no substitute for the necessary overhaul of our policies and attitudes towards #children and young people

"Two stories. One a lie; an exercise in myth-making and disinformation. The other, the plain and simple objective truth.
Both tell us everything we need to know about young people in this country. One shows us how our kids are falsely – cruelly – perceived and portrayed; whilst the other, crucially, reveals what young people are really like, & gives us an honest measure of their attitudes and values."

Climate anxiety in children and young people and their beliefs about government responses to climate change: a global survey
"Climate anxiety and eco-anxiety (distress relating to the climate and ecological crises) are gaining attention worldwide as people become increasingly aware of the current and future global threats associated with our warming planet."
"Climate change has important implications for the health and futures of children and young people, yet they have little power to limit its harm, making them vulnerable to climate anxiety."
"Climate anxiety and dissatisfaction with government responses are widespread in children and young people in countries across the world and impact their daily functioning. A perceived failure by governments to respond to the climate crisis is associated with increased distress."
