UK STOPS VISA APPEALS!



Effective 25/06/2013, the right of appeal against refusal of a visit visa sponsored by a family member in the UK has been abolished. Combined with the recently announced pilot of £3,000 ‘bonds’ payable for visitors to the UK, it is clear the Government is making it increasingly difficult for visitors from certain countries, principally in south east Asia and Africa, to visit relatives here in the UK.

The Government’s view of family visit appeals is that they are needless and that a simple re-application with the right documents will be sufficient where there is a genuine case. Anyone who thinks this clearly has not spent a lot of time reading Entry Clearance Officer family visit refusals from posts such as Accra, Islamabad, Manila, Delhi or Lagos. ECOs regularly refuse visas for the most absurd reasons and once a person has been refused once it is a matter of routine to refuse future applications.



The full right of appeal against decisions made from today onwards may have been scrapped, but an appeal can still be pursued on human rights or race discrimination grounds. Given that the Home Office has long argued that family visits are a perfectly good family life alternative to residence in the same country, it may be hard for officials to argue now that family life is not engaged where a child wishes to visit a parent or a parent a child, whether the child is adult or not.

NIGERIAN WOMAN PREFERS SUICIDE TO DEPORTATION FROM UK!!

'Please forgive me for ending it this way. It's better to die with my dignity than be subjected to torture and undignified death back in Nigeria.'

Asylum seeker, 19, married to British man in a coma after taking overdose days before she was due to be deported for being a 'sham bride'
May Brown fled Nigeria after witnessing father's murder
She married Michael Brown in Dorset and wanted to be a lawyer
Border officials say the marriage is bogus
 
A campaign has been launched to urge officials to allow critically-ill asylum seeker May Brown to stay in the UK. The 19-year-old is so traumatised at the prospect of returning to Nigeria that she tried to kill herself.
She remains in a serious condition at Dorset County Hospital where husband, former British soldier Michael Brown from Weymouth, is staging a vigil.

May’s application to stay in the UK was refused by the Border Agency and she was told she would be sent back to Nigeria on a chartered flight.

May was so scared at the prospect of returning to the country where she witnessed her father’s murder and was subjected to sexual abuse, that she decided she would ‘rather die than go back there.’ Speaking at Dorset County Hospital, May’s husband Michael said the situation made him ‘furious.’ He added: “Although May has gained consciousness, she’s absolutely traumatised.

(Dorset Echo)

An asylum seeker who is married to a British man is fighting for her life in hospital after an overdose just days before she was due to be sent back to Nigeria.

May Brown, a 19-year-old college student, fled to Britain from her home country three years ago after witnessing her father's murder and being subjected to sexual abuse.

She settled in Weymouth, Dorset, where she met her husband, Michael Brown, 12 months ago and the couple married last December.

Mrs Brown, who was a games maker at last summer's Olympics and has two university offers to study law, applied to stay in the UK but despite her marriage her application was rejected.
