End the forced separation of UK Citizens from their families


End the forced separation of UK Citizens from their families
The Issue
In September 2011 our family was blessed with two weddings - our son married a lovely local girl and our daughter married her long time penpal from USA. We are a typical British Family living in rural Cornwall - we all work - we may not be rich but we are close knit and there for each other. Even though my daughter works full time at a local business - Theresa May's immigration income rule means that many families like ours are being kept apart because they don't earn enough - not because they are out of work or not being useful to society - but they are the working poor. Most people who know us did not know about these immigratoin rules where a wife is separated from her husband - I'm sure lots of you did not either. Despite the Government's scrapping of legal aid - we have represented ourselves at Court and won our case against UKBA on 24 September 2013 - but are still waiting for our visa. Please help us to help our daughter and others facing separation - just look at your significant other or somone you love and imagine how you would feel being torn apart - for years. Thank you.
