Peace activists blast army’s ‘time wasters’ slur
		
	PEACE campaigners hit back at the Army Reserve yesterday after its recruitment strategy researchers labelled young Brits “time wasters.”
After finding that most 18 to 35-year-olds spent three and a-half-hours a day on social media and gaming, the outfit formerly known as the Territorial Army urged millennials to join up instead.
But anti-war campaigns such as Peace Pledge Union (PPU) argued that communication and activism were far better causes than violence.
