Re: FLR (LR) Application refused

You've got a solicitor, I'm sorry, you need to speak to him. He has all the papers and knowledge of the case, we can't really second-guess.

Ask your solicitor?

It is usually within 3 months of the consent order. Does the consent order specify?

Re: 2nd EU Referendum petition

All of those matters - turnout, threshold, whatever - needed to be argued about BEFORE the referendum. It's not great to start arguing about them afterwards.

The Act of Parliament passed by a country mile, the majority was huge.

Re: Arrested at wedding despite permission

After complaining about them discriminating my human right, they have finally started to make a move. The problem is that he is in another County in another City and therefore we have to give notice again. That means it will take 70 days again. He has got a removal date for the 29th of July.

Re: Post Brexit Discussion

I think we're heading for enough evidence of swallowed lies and misunderstandings to dismiss the referendum as invalid. I think that would be absolutely wrong. It's impossible to say what people had in mind when they voted, but 1.3 million votes as a margin is a definite decision, if not an overwhe...

Re: Post Brexit Discussion

It has never been a problem, breaking down the different constituency of voters. No one has suggested, that all the people who voted leave are uneducated or lovey. However it is a fact that a significant majority are. That is a fact , when you look into facts. Don't be silly. That's not a "fact", t...

I earn a significant portion of my living from EU law too, as I'm a barrister who does immigration law. I don't, however, think that everyone should have considered my career before voting! I live in one of the areas with the highest percentage of "remain" voters, but I have family members in Kent w...

Re: Post Brexit Discussion

I have expressed a view. I said most of the people who voted, did so for facial motivated reason. The actions of these people affect the lives of many people in a fundamental manner. This is not a difference as reconcileable as someone voting for labour or conservatives. Yes the view are respected,...

Re: Post Brexit Discussion

On the subject of democracy, this referendum was not democratic. Foreign citizens from commonwealth countries were able to vote and with all certainty they have voted leave, while EU citizens who have been here for donkeys years were not allowed to vote. That's been the electoral law position for a...

Re: Post Brexit Discussion

The EU must compel the UK to invoke Article 50 immediately. You cannot have the likes of Borris and Gove having their cake and eating it. The EU can't compel the UK to invoke Article 50. It is the country wishing to do so which invokes it. I felt sorry for Scots, and 75 % of young people like mysel...

Re: 2nd EU Referendum petition

Strikes me as seriously bizarre. The time to set rules about what turnout there should be, and what percentage of the vote is required, etc, is BEFORE the vote. Not afterwards!

It's nuts. You can't keep having re-runs of the vote until you get the answer you like.

Start with the notices for detention. What reasons are given?

Is removal imminent? Have removal directions been set, or a "removal window" notified to him?

The permission letter - look at it again.

It usually says the Home Office don't accept by giving permission that the relationship is genuine?

Re: Arrested at wedding despite permission

Of course the facts are very different.

But, nevertheless, while a person might have a lawful ability to marry in the UK that isn't the same an a right to do so.

It's not a hopeless case at all. But it is a difficult one.

She has been going to Gambia for 22 years, and had 2 unsuccessful marriages, and loves Gambian men. Nothing unusual.
