There is no right income level for a British spousal visa. It should be a core individual right for British people to marry someone from overseas and live with them in their country, no matter how much money they make.

Could the Conservatives make yesterday’s immigration announcements even worse? Of course: ‘Brits could see their foreign partners told to leave the country the next time their visa comes up for renewal–if their household does not earn £38,700, No 10 said.’ independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

Disgraceful.

Government now discussing forcing people whose families are here to leave the UK if they are unable to meet the higher MIR once their visa is up for renewal.

Imagine being forced to leave your partner and child behind and move abroad.

If they go ahead with this, it will be unconscionable. Unconscionable. Not just preventing Brits from coming home with a foreign partner, but actively breaking up British families *who already live together in the country*. independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

Many British citizens will be unable to live legally in the UK with their spouses. This is twice the national minimum wage. A lot of people simply cannot afford it, no matter how hard they work.

We are beyond devastated for the Home Secretary's decision to increase the Minimum Income Requirement to £38,700. Which will come into effect in the Spring.

Our hearts are breaking for every couple and family right now.

We will update you with more info as soon as we know them

This was not a 2019 Conservative Party manifesto commitment and we call upon both Houses of Parliament to reject this cruel and unnecessary legislation.

We are astonished to see the UK government take such punishing action against UK citizens with non-British family members. It effectively strips a key citizenship right - the right to return to live in the UK - from UK overseas with non-UK family members. We will oppose this.

We have been keeping an eye on refusals of entry to the UK as part of our mapping of migration to and from the UK since Brexit - so we have quite a bit to say on the issue of refusals of EU citizens … from our Co-lead ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Fiona Godfrey from British in Europe shares there are very similar issues on the other side of the channel. Unlike EU citzens in UK who can go back to EU with family, Brits can't bring their family back to the UK without expensive and difficult visas
