Gurkha Justice Campaign
I sometimes wonder at the stupidity of Government. It seems completely unfair to me that they can support a bunch of corporate idiots who get themselves into debt. Banks who have done more to cause suffering and hardship through their irresponsible lending policies.
And yet..
They refuse to help a group of courageous people who have supported the UK for over 200 years,
My dad fought for his country during the second world war, I was in the King's Own Royal Border Regiment in my younger days and I think it's appalling that the government are unwilling to recognise the right of the Gurkha's to become UK residents.
Please, if you are a UK resident, support the Gurha Justice campaign to persuade the government to put things right.
This isn't an appeal for cash.. it's an online petition. Simply enter your details and click a button and you'll get a nice thank you email from Joanna Lumley star of Absolutely Fabulous!

Saw you tweet on this John and signed the petition. For good measure I also gave it a Digg @ http://digg.com/politics/Gurkha_justice_petition

John these people deserve better and as you know we have worked together to put a page online which will hopefully help. http://www.squidoo.com/gurkhas
