If you are travelling abroad or going abroad to live, beware: don’t fall in love unless you have a solid job. Don’t let chance or luck fool you – you will rue the consequences, my friend. You need an income of at least £18,600 to be allowed to bring your foreign (non-EU) spouse to live in the UK. If you have kids, you’ll need around another £2000 per child.
The Bard of Glastonbury is among those affected – he has an American wife (what was he thinking?).
Don’t say you haven’t been warned.
I like this one, too. A more serious side. Gets to the 18 million pence point really well. Great work!
