I would echo Tigger's statement...on the whole I'm comfortable with the UK's immigration process, but it was obviously seriously flawed when it came to the Ghurkas, and that flaw has now rightly been dealt with.
Ultimately, if someone is prepared to fight and potentially die for this country, then that person should have the right to live in this country when they have completed their service.
