howie Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I imagine most of you will be aware of the campaign to give the right of settlement and equality regarding pension rights etc. to past and present serving Gurkhas who have given so much to our Country, and if you wish to add your support to this campaign then click onto ........ gurkhajustice.org.uk .......... Only takes a minute and will give you the chance to show how much we appreciate the loyalty and sacrifice made on our behalf in the past. Thanks.

ROON Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Will do, Howie. Feel strongly about this. Even at 90 and senile dementia setting in, my dad STILL goes on about the wonderful men who fought alongside him and their great bravery. If they had been sons of terrorists there would have been no problem. Joy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
howie Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 Thanks Joy. Don't want to turn this into anything political or such like but it does make you wonder why these relatively few worthy friends of ours are being denied while those less, acceptable shall we say, are welcomed with open arms.
