Rejected petition refuse afghan military advisors access to the UK

More details

Given recent events in Woolwich the govt must review its decision to grant permanent residency to Afghan nationals serving as non combatant military advisors in Afghanistan (circa 800 in number). This represents a clear and present danger to the security of UK citizens and members of the security forces here in the UK. In the intrests of security and safety for UK nationals action is required now.

Given the ongoing saga with the Ghurkas this is nothing short of disgraceful and should be stopped dead in its tracks.
