Princes George and Louis and Princess Charlotte would be called up to National Service under controversial new plans as Tories admit exemptions would be very limited

Prince George, Prince Louis, and Princess Charlotte will be expected to undertake the scheme when they turn 18, with details confirming that there will be ‘very limited exceptions’ to get out of the service and that the young royals will not be exempt.

It comes after the Secretary of State James Cleverly revealed to LBC on Sunday that those who refuse would not receive ‘criminal sanctions’.

Prince George, 10, will be the first young royal made to undertake the scheme when he turns 18 in July 2031, followed a year later by Princess Charlotte, nine, and three years later by Prince Louis, six.

Princess Beatrice and Eugenie also have young children who would be eligible to take part once they reach the age of 18, as well as Prince Edward’s son, the Earl of Wessex, 16.

Rishi Sunak made the first major policy announcement of the general election campaign on Sunday, vowing to bring back National Service for 18-year-olds – a scheme that has not been seen in the UK since 1960.

The Prime Minister received backlash after launching the proposal but said he wanted the change to instill a ‘shared sense of purpose’ in today’s youth.
