In a recent post on X (formerly Twitter), Labour claimed that Prime Minister and Conservative leader Rishi Sunak would “deny you access to your bank account and driving licence” if you refuse to “enlist for national service.” However, during his appearance on the BBC Question Time Leaders’ Special, Sunak did mention “a set of sanctions” related to national service but did not specifically state that bank accounts or driving licences would be used as sanctions. He emphasized the need for a Royal Commission to recommend an appropriate mix of sanctions and incentives.
