    well looking at the proposals he'll need to be on £60k a year, which he is not, i wonder what percentage of the population are ?. somewhere to live - which he hasn't got and savings would help - which he hasn't got - so being a realist or pessimistic are the same thing here - no chance

    Going to be heartbreaking for many.
    Reminds me of our visa and immigration journey. I do remember thinking at that time
    how come these people have such power to impact our life togather. Tough days they were.
