It’s no surprise that the British Government and the economy are still finding themselves struggling after the recession. The latest development in the public sector cuts will be affecting the Gurkhas! The 3,500 strong brigade of Nepalese soldiers that currently serve for the British army will lose 400 Gurkha soldiers in the next 12 months as the Ministry of Defence has announced up to 2,900 members of the army will be made redundant.
Below is a list of those facing the cuts from each area (DailyMail).
