Nick Clegg tackles Gordon Brown on Gurhka Justice at Prime Ministers Questions

June 26, 2008 3:15 PM

A retired Gurkha SoldierLib Dem leader Nick Clegg has once again taken the issue of the unfair treatment of Gurkhas who retired before 1997 into the Parliament. At Prime Ministers Questions on Wednesday, Nick asked when the Government would finally grant citizenship rights to all Gurkhas, including those who retired before 1997, and tackle the injustice that sees a Gurkha's service years before 1997 given far less pension than equivalent British Army soldiers.
