I have taken this from the Daily Express today:

The Gurkhas successfully overturned immigration rules which gave them no automatic right to stay in the UK if they retired from the British Army before 1997.

In an embarrassing U-turn, Home Secretary Jacqui Smith agreed to review all Gurkha immigration cases by the end of the year.

But Joanna fears the Government's commitment may be short-lived and she is urging people to sign a petition on her website www.gurkhajustice.org.uk which she plans to present to Gordon Brown.

Joanna 62, whose father fought alongside the Gurkhas in the Second World War, has promised to take her fight all the way to the steps of 10 Downing Street.

SIGN JOANNA'S PETITION TO ALLOW ALL GURKHAS TO STAY IN THE UK NOW!

"There is a real danger that the Government will fudge this opportunity and bring in new rules that still discriminate against pre-1997 retirees," she told the Daily Express yesterday.

"I want to make sure the Government changes the law immediately."

I have just joined this campaign. I have been unable to make a link straight to Joanna's petition but there is a link that works here.

36,915 signatures on the other petition.
