Grant Fijian service/Ex service personnel citizenship to remain in the UK

Petition Details

Too allow all Fijian service/Ex service personnel to be granted British Citizenship for services to the United Kingdom

Additional Information

Eight Fijian-born soldiers who served with the British army in Iraq and Afghanistan have failed in a legal effort to overturn what they say were bureaucratic errors that have left them living illegally in the country they once served.
The group were refused leave for a judicial review of their cases by Mr Justice Garnham, who concluded the veterans had made their claim too late and that the courts were concerned with “illegality not misadministration” or an “unfocused idea of fairness”.
