Fast-track UK citizenship for the husbands and wives of British Citizens

Petition Details

The rules against allowing a British citizen's spouse to live in the UK are onerous. Each couple pays huge fees, again and again. British children suffer.

Stop treating our own loved ones as 'temporary migrants'. Provide a fast and affordable route to citizenship for spouses of British citizens.
