Armed Forces personnel from Commonwealth and Overseas countries the right to remain in the UK with citizenship unless they have a Serious Disciplinary

Additional Information

Soldiers from the Commonwealth and overseas who have served in the British Army are being denied British passports because of ‘minor’ disciplinary issues.

Troops from Fiji, Jamaica and other nations are refused British citizenship facing borders chiefs for being ‘not of good character’.

Veterans groups say they have seen dozens of cases where a new law is being applied which leaves the individual facing deportation.

This is a travistie, when known terrorists get to remain due to their Human Rights.
