Show your support for the Gurkhas's

Sign the petition to show your support for these guys. Many have given their lives for our country.

""If there was a minute's silence for every Gurkha casualty from WWII alone, we would have to keep quiet for two weeks "

We need to show the Government just how far out of touch they are with public opinion.

Maybe more people will sign up this time.

For shame HMG!!

If only 5 of us voted for this one it looks like it counted to the total, a big well done to Joanna Lumley for getting this one sorted out - Mike

I left my e-mail address when I signed the petition in the fist place, so I got a message yesterday from Joanna. This had a link which I could use to find the address to e-mail my MP, Shaun Woodward.

I did this, asking him to support the question raised by Nick Clegg and to let me know his reasons if he felt that he could not do what I asked.

I got a reply today from a lady in his office, who said that she would pass my request to Shaun. I hope to get a response from him in due course.

The link is Here so I would ask everyone to do the same.

Hpefully, the more people that write, then the more evidence the government will have about the depth of feeling about this issue.

Come on guys! You know you want to! It's worth it just to get an email from Joanna Lumley! Very Happy

Seriously though...it's shameful how our government are treating the Gurkhas. Mad

Aye, I bet we could have housed a couple of Ghurkha Families for less than the expence claims of a single MP Evil or Very Mad

Utterly shameful that we have disowned these men who have devoted their lives to the service of our country. And they are one of the most professional and feared fighting units in the world.

Surprisingly enough, my MP has failed to answer the e-letter I sent. All I got was an acknowledgment from 'his office'.

I will be looking for his expenses claims in due course.

Govt has backed down a little bit, but pressure still needs putting on them, particularly with elections not that far away.

Mine replied and had actually taken the time to answer all my questions. Sadly Mr Arbuthnott is one of the many who is in it up to his neck as far as the expences debacle is concerned but then are there any truly untainted?

Why does Bradford need three MPs anyway? Confused

Perhaps it's so that they can rip off the taxpayer by a factor of three. Shocked

The government has caved in.

This is excellent news. Smile
