Please help.... Squaddies On the Streets after Serving Country!!!
Guy's.
A few years ago I was made redundent from the RAF.On re-locating back home I applied for a council house.I was told that I would have to wait a minimum of seven years before I became eligable for a home.Therefore I had to rent from a private landlord at a high cost.
All of this was despite me moving back to the same location as my family & having my Dads address as my home address.
Even today,ex-servicemen & women are being discriminated against in this way. We currently have a petition going thru the British Parliment to get the housing rules changed.
All I am asking is this,That you take a few minutes of your time & please sign the petition.The military forces where ever you live have provide us all here with entertainment & subject to model.
Please do ths small thing for them.
Thank you.

Done (ex-RAF myself, I was lucky enough to be able to live with my brother until I got on my feet - everyone isn't so fortunate).

No problem Gavin.
And a big thanks to all that has signed.Would it be too much in asking that each of you forward the petition link on to someone else so we can get as many signatures as possible?
Again,A big thank you !!
