It totally beggars belief that some pen pusher in a Ministry somewhere has seen fit to deny this gentleman entry to the UK. I have served with the Gurkhas and, indeed, been treated by a Gurkha medic on one occasion. Great soldiers, proud men and a credit to their Nation.
Letter sent to HM and PM requesting that he:
1. Be allowed entry
2. That he be treated at the taxpayers expense
3. That he receive an official apology for the callous way in which he has been treated.
