Support British Military Veterans (including the Ghurkas).

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

With the recent events in Afghanistan, the British Government should give British Veterans (including the Ghurkas) priority for poper housing and support before any refugees.
The Armed Forces in this country have carried out the duties expected of them and the Government does not treat them respect.
