discuss in forums We understand that there is a need to control Britains borders but....

How is it possible that approx. 846,600 plus foreigners were allowed into Britain since May 2004 alone just because their countries were lucky enough to have joined the EU whether or not the British public accepted them or not but when a British person actually requests for a foreigner to be present in the UK as their spouse we are met with so many obstacles.

With all due respect, it seems that there is an increasing pattern that the turks who have married non British origin girls have been given there UK Visa's with much less hassle, some without even leaving England and some even bringing their wives in from other countries, it seems that if you are a Turk with a British girl the integrity of your relationship would be under a lot more su****ion by the Home Office, in fact, if the partner of the Turk wishing to remain is dual nationality they are strongly advised to apply with their foreign passports.

How is this justified?

We are genuinely in love and are trying to do things the right way, following the system, yet, we are having all of this stress and heartache.

We are the ones who are going through the most physical turmoil here it is said that all of this immigration control was put in place to protect the British Citizens, we do not feel very protected, outcast in fact because we fell in love.

203 lorraine setterfield Who is this system here to protect? It doesnt make sence. If people have decided to make vows to each other why should the government have a final say. They should respect marriage instead of putting a strain on it.
