My MP was worried that that a mass exodus of former Gurkha's and their families from Nepal to the UK, could have a devastating impact on the Nepalese economy, and provoke the PM of Nepal to put an end to the tradition of Gurkhas joining the british army, which he has the power to do
My MP Helen Southworth voted no and has not replied to my 2 emails. She will NOT be getting my vote at the next election.
