Rejected petition Change the rule for £18 600 spouse visa

certain jobs with the current minimum wages it is impossible to earn £18 600 a week why not look at this decision again maybe drop the amount down and allow full time worker to live with there family

More details

Considering the current minimum wages even working full time will not allow certain people to ear £18.600 I totally agree that if you want to bring your spouse over you need to work and participate in the country develepment but take an example of a care assistant doing 50 hours a week you still cant ear that much why not allow working to bring there famillies instead of bringing more and more refugees
