If an earning threshold is upheld.. who knows how secure that earning capability is?
    And would also agree with that.....nobody indeed knows whats around the corner...its a comforting thought there's always the generous welfare system to fall back on. Joke!

    you've a right to claim what ever benefits your entitled to, and where your wife is from shouldn't matter at all (is that not discrimination ? )
    gWapito i'm against people abusing the system, infact i think if you've not paid in, you can't take out of the system.

    the gov if it does go ahead will open a big can of worms, it will face many court cases, and judicial reviews, it will either U turn or it will be forced into changing the figure to a lower figure. The gov has a record at winning immigration cases, it was forced into lower the age back to 18 from 21, it was forced into cancelling the COA (cert of approval) if you wanted to get married, but this is a bigger ball game than them and bigger than the pasty tax

    maybe everyone on here and other forums similar could have a whip round and make a donation the gov will change their mind to about the minimum income

    Yes. I saw Dedworth's posting on that. I just find the pasty thing quite funny.

    You are right, of course although it pains me to say it.

    I think lastlid copied and pasted something earlier yesterday and it makes sense....well, it does to me.....the consensus being, implementing this proposal, wont work.

    Again there are far too many other injustices going on for it to work...like you said 'discrimination' .

    Others on here have said it would/ could be a vote winner..quite possibly....like its been said before...the genuine law abiding immigrant getting tarred with all those EuroTrash.

    The stories in the papers dont help there cause.
