Subject: Thanks a Bunch.. By the way you owe us 300 quid.

This is a disgrace.

Thousands of immigrants from Eastern Europe, Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Somalia and dozens of other nations enter England ever year, i don't notice them having to pay to be allowed to stay.

Read the article and tell me what you think.
It's a disgrace in my opinion.

Typical gov't idiocy.

The offended vet should be made a citizen, and the offending bureaucrats should be flogged until they cry for their mommies (which, considering the constitution of most bureaucrats, should happen BEFORE the first stroke lands). >:(

Cretins.

Couldn't agree more.

The man came over and fought during the war and then decided to make England his home, something he was legally allowed to do by the Government. Then all of a sudden they decide to backdate a new idea and force him to pay 330 odd quid (the equivalent of about $600) just to be allowed to come and go as he pleases.

I'm appalled.

But (he says with tongue in cheek) you just have to protect those boarders don't you?  Just ask GWBush.

SEriously, this does seem a bit off the wall.

Very off the wall.

That's the problem you see. The double standards in place. The U.K has thousands of Immigrants from all over the shop who are given at the very least residency and in a lot of cases citizenship. Yet a man who's lived there most of his life, fought for them in the war, has married an English woman, worked for English company's, paid English taxes and was told by the Government he has the right to live there has to pay to be allowed to do something he's already supposedly entitled to do.. ridiculous.
