BBC NEWS | Politics | MPs urged to change Gurkha rules

Good luck to them.

Don't hold your breath Wynonie, you know Brown only has two rules
Rule 1 Gordon Brown is always right
Rule 2 If Gordon Brown is proved wrong Rule 1 applies

it could never have become law today, as you are probably well aware, laws have never been changed DIRECTLY after ANY vote.

Yesterday saw the first defeat of a Government since James Callaghan lost a vote on a referendum on Scottish Devolution, leading to losing a vote of no confidence on the 28th March 1979 which saw the fall of the Labour Government

Re: Gurkhas Win

Sadly not in this case, abhorrent behaviour from the MOD, especially as one of these lads was killed only the other week. Fighting for a Country they have given their loyalty to, in a war not of their choosing but due to the pride of these people they'll dig in & get on. Disgusting
