This test case now paves the way for about 2,000 fellow ex-members of the Gurkha regiment to have their immigration cases reviewed by the UK government. Immigration rules stated that those Gurkhas who retired from the British Army before 1997 could not have an automatic right to settle in the UK. This rule was challenged by the case earlier this week.
The Gurkhas have a reputation for being fiercely brave and have worked alongside the British Army for 200 years, fighting in both world wars. Nick Clegg of the LibDems said "I've always felt that if someone is prepared to die for this country, then they should have the right to live in this country".
I am very pleased at this outcome, and feel it is the least we can do for these very brave people.
i think it is a disgrace fof them not to have been allowed to stay befor,other peaple are allowed into the country and they have done a big nothing for our country
