The Gurkhas

I see the Gurkhas have finally won their right to settle in the UK.

But.... hang on.... Joanna Lumley still seems to be cross.... whatever for?  Surely the government have caved in?

However it appears that all is not as it seems (as per, with this morally bankrupt bunch of spinners). There seem to be some "strings".

What twisted mind frames the rules to insist upon 20 years service (a rifleman is only permitted to serve 15) or demand 3 years residence in the UK (the Gurkhas UK tour lasts 2 years), to effectively deny residence to as many as possible of these fine men?

They were my "enemy" at Sandhurst and, ever since, I have had the utmost respect for them both as professionals and as people.

This whole debacle has been a stain on the honour of Britain.
