So the liberal / left Labour Party - our saviours from the cruelty and excesses of Tories - have decided people should live in this country for ten years before they can put down roots.
Ten years of constant employment. Ten years of the Home Office peering into people's marriages. Ten years of not being able to return home to be an emergency career for a parent. Ten years of being unable to get credit. Ten years with constant uncertainty. Ten years of extremely reduced freedom of speech. Ten years of an absolute maximum of 20 days leave per year.
Having immigration officials peer at your relationship is kind of a similar pressure to lodging with your spouse's mum.
I've experienced both things and I'd go back to being a lodger with my mother in law over having to deal with the Home Office.
Labour is mandating a ten years of a suspended adolescence where your marriage can constantly be upended and your life isn't your own.
And for who? What good does it bring to the country if Brits married to migrants have to suffer?
