More dodgy vicars conducting sham weddings

[Dedworth]

Can't locate the other thread on this topic so.........................

Two vicars have been arrested on suspicion of running a sham marriage conspiracy to help illegal immigrants stay in Britain.

The Rev Brian Shipsides, 54, and the Rev Elwon John, 43, were detained yesterday by police investigating suspected fake weddings at a church in east London.

The Daily Telegraph told last week how police and Church insiders fear crime gangs are using corrupt vicars to exploit weaknesses in Anglican procedures and help thousands of African men and women gain residency.

Marriages are so ridiculously priced in the UK anyway

Just how did people wangle more and more £ out of people for all the nonsense that goes into the day beats me.

Lots of couples will end in divorce also

Madness

However, ridiculous prices will tempt vicars to make a few bob

She is lulling you into a false sense of security, and then strike like a cobra....

[stevewool]

well we shall see, i am still the boss

[aposhark]

All his talk about banning wives and being the boss sounds like the bygone days to me

Surely one of the best things about Filipina wives (fiancees/girlfriends) is that they are so frugal with money

[stevewool]

there is no boss in my home that was just for fun , we agreed once emma was here its a sharing life , nust always talk things through and as you say they are very frugal with money too, we are very alike myself and emma we both want the same in life, we dont need the best of this and that we make do and are very happy

Likewise in OUR home, Steve ... WE'RE both what Filipinos might call "thrifty" ... don't believe in squandering money for the sake of it! Neither of us drive, so we don't have a car ... and that's a BIG saving!

What a load of tight

... WE'RE both what Filipinos might call "SCOTTISH" ...
