Rejected petition Give The Gurkas a pension equal to to all other British servicemen

Give the Gurkas a decent pension equal to all British retired servicemen. These brave men have fought alongside the British army for generations. They deserve and should be awarded the same pension payment as the servicemen they supported.

More details

The Gurkas grow up in their mountain villages with one ambition and that is to serve in the British Army . They have been and still are a formidable asset to the British Army often striking fear into our enemies. They deserve the same treatment, respect, pay, and pension as given to our own military serving personnel.
