Rep Power: 99 | | | Gurkha Immigration BBC NEWS | UK | Gurkha-rights test case under way
" Gurkha-rights test case under way
Many former Gurkhas want to be able to stay in the UK
An immigration tribunal is taking place which could help decide whether 2,000 former Gurkha soldiers in the Army have the right to settle in the UK."
I think it's terrible, they should be allowed to come here IMO

Rep Power: 160 | | | I thought this was all dealt with some time ago and they got their rights.
It's insane, give them permission already.

at the finish of a mountain race in wales the first guy past was a gurkha. his sargeant cheered and congratulated him. The next 20 guys past the finish were gurkhas too - they got a howling at and made to do press ups. Thirty minutes later the rest of the runners started coming through
