...it's a petition to alert the British government to the plight of many Gurkha soldiers who are left without support from the UK after they complete their service and was brought about after an 84 year old Gurkha veteran, decorated with the VC, was refused entry in to Britain for citizenship and even medical treatment.
If you would like to sign please do so; I don't often get up on my soap box but really think something needs to be done here.
If you aren't in agreement, or don't want to sign, then please don't leave a rude, hateful or imflammatory statement.
Thanks!

I am putting this in R&S as well as P&S and Military to get as much interest as possible.
