Please take a few minutes to look at this...
Most will have seen in the press or heard on the news of the plight of many former Gurkha soldiers under threat of deportation from the UK - it's a disgrace! They are not allowed to work here to support themselves and have to rely on charity - nor are they entitled to NHS treatment.
And this when New Labour lets in any foreign tosspot.
A petition to the PM has been started and it needs support!
If you want to help - it is at http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/Gurkha-soldiers/
Please help. _________________ Remember: You don't stop laughing because you grow old, You grow old because you stop laughing! |

There was a good discussion this week about the plight of the Gurkha soldiers. Joanna Lumley was speaking on behalf of them as her father was a Gurkha. It was on the Jermey Vine program, Tuesday 16th September.
You can listen again on -
If visit the BBC radio 2 website - Jeremy Vine - then select the program on broadcast on Tuesday |

Well, you learn something new every day. I didn't realise that Joanna was a 'half ghurka'. _________________ Remember: You don't stop laughing because you grow old, You grow old because you stop laughing! |
