Youth see Ukraine, but the issues that are priority aren’t prepping for war. Climate, mental health services, higher education & training, diverse employment opportunities & later, affordable housing are some top concerns. Dutton’s school reference raises a few questions.

Send the lot to Russia. They are running low on brainwashed soldiers...
