Citizenship – heavily featured in the media is the case of a Commonwealth citizen facing being deported at the end of long British service, despite being married to a British citizen, having children and paid all his taxes whilst fighting for “Queen and Country”. A minor misdemeanor whilst in service means he cannot remain – the case is rightly to be reviewed. Lest you think this is an “Army” problem on the Fleet Flagship, the Assault Ship BULWARK are two Fijian brothers, serving as Seamen, and their cousin will represent Fiji at judo in the Olympic Games. There must be many more Commonwealth citizen serving under the colours and this problem needs to be sorted once and for all and quickly.
