So #JamesCleverly has (in the face of uproar) reduced the wage threshold for spousal visas....
It was to jump from £18k to £38,700... but now will 'only' jump to £29k...
But this is an 'initial' rise & the final level will be reached in a series of stages (but as yet unscheduled).
Once again, the #Tories have managed to find a way of maximising #anxiery & #stress for migrants' families.
Once again its team-inhumanity at work!
