on public funds

Regarding my husband's application for my visa, eventhough he is on DLA why should he not be allowed to sponsor me? My husband is on DLA which he does not like to receive but his total nervous system was messed up by long term prescription drugs which at the age of 40 the medical profession in their ultimate wisdom tried to withdraw him from. He was a fairly successful plumber and heating engineer then, he owned his own business and due to the reaction from the sudden drug withdrawal he is now unable to work. My husband is a model citizen who has never had any CCJs or criminal record of any kind. So does your thinking rule out the fact that my husband has not got a right to life?

If that is true, he can sue them for a lot of money to support him till he dies. You are compensated in this country for any medical cockups. If he hasn't sued, then something doesn't sound right here.
