Additional Information

About 10,000 foreign and Commonwealth men annually were using marriage as a means to live and work in the UK in 1979, when the newly-elected Conservative Government promised to end this concession.
It did not.
As a result, more than 300,000 men have taken advantage of this loophole.
It should, belatedly, be closed.
