I have nothing but admiration for these men of Nepal. They possess all the qualities of first class soldiers. They are disciplined, & feared by all forces the world over. They have chosen to give their loyalty, & their lives to Great Britain. They have been treated shabbily by successive governments & none more so than this pack of idiots in power now.

Any person who serves & fights for this country, as a member of the armed forces, deserves equal pay, status, & the right to live here. As an old squaddie I am ashamed of the way these fine men have been, & are still treated.

Not all immigrants are bad. The last person to win the Victoria Cross was an immigrant. Pte Johnson Beharry was one of eight children living in Grenada. He moved to Britain when he was 19. He worked as a labourer on building sites before joining the Army. This is the highest honour this country can bestow on a soldier.
