How about all you Indian folk waiting >6 months stop whinging and go and do something proactive about it like inform the media, bbc etc. I included the bbc link here. Why did it get deleted? Sadiq Khan keeps gurgling the same rhetoric, hit them where it hurts by exposing the truth. I have! The poli...

sorry to hear bryon. That is really bad. Where did you apply from? I am waiting to hear back from the BBC on appropriate contact for the reporter who recently reported on the Home Office's inhumane treatment of us. Are we all ok to provide our story to the BBC to push the politicians to help us? Ma...

Hi guys, My Taiwanese wife's EEA family permit was approved yesterday. To recap, we applied in Madrid on 1 August and escalated twice, got MP to help us (he wrote to UKVI but apparently never got a response) and complained to the Home Office. Not sure if any one or more of those made a difference. ...

Apparently, BBC couldn't help.

Just wandering around on various forums. Became my daily routine ;) This one notably [LINK REMOVED] , re the avalanche of decisions.
