I've never understood the Government's (this one and all previous) reluctance to permit them the right of automatic entitlement to live in the UK. I've always felt rather ashamed of my country for that.

These guys have fought & some have died for our country, they deserve to live here.
They are in my view more entitled than the illegal imigrants we get all the time.

I wonder who I shall be voting for at the next election, ah yes, the Joanna Lumley Gurkha party.

Although I'm Dutch agree with you guys. At last, justice prevailed. Congrats Britain and congrats Gurkha's.
