Really encouraging news for all of us!! Please read the following !! To this end we have laid a motion against these changes which we hope to debate in committee before the deadline as stipulated by parliamentary procedure (we anticipate this will be in the next month). This post has been edited by...
It will be useful to see if the demonstration worked (even partially). If it didn't work at all, what are the doctors planning to do next. What can be learnt from their success or failure. I guess demonstration by itself won't work, because the media will quickly forget about it and the HO can just ...
BBC NEWs on Indian Demonstration Good morning everyone, Just heard on the BBC Radio 4 News (8am) a report titled “A demonstration is being staged for the change of rules that could force hundreds of Indian Doctors to leave the country”. I think the change of that rule is retrospective too. Our campa...
my mp David Heath from Lib Democrat said that he will raise the issue with the HO and told me that he'll be signing the EMD i have just sent him a new e-mail with the new EMD so hopefully he will be signing it soon. by the way guys does anyone belongs to any community groups.. i have been contactin...
These are encouraging signs. These letters, at least proved that the HO's change of rule (especially its retrospective nature) is controversial! Another way to see the problem is to look at the process through which the change of the rule has been brought out. Then there is the RIAs issue. The HO di...
This might be ok? The Petition Against the Retrospective Implementation of the 4-to-5 Qualifying Year Change in ILR Rules" or The Petition Against the Retrospective Implementation of the 4-to-5 Year rule Change in ILR" I think the second one "The Petition Against the Retrospective Im...
The title can be "The Petition Against the Retrospective 4-to-5 Year Change in ILR Qualifying Rules". What do you think? aj77, thank you! Hidden dragon wrote , Currently, work needs to be done to agree on a template text for the petition letter. You have got one, which is great. But could ...

They can play balls.
They can play words.
However, after such a long time for considering, they still haven't produce an argument that can stand up to scrutiny!
We have a winning chance!
I totally agree! We need 2 things: an automatic tool and a monitoring system. (1) on the automatic tool. The BTCD developed a system which generates and sends email automatically to your MPs. You only need to input your postcode, name and etc details, it finds your MP and send the email for you. The...
Good to see we are trying our best. I already signed & mailed petition form. I also wrote to my MP twice but no reply (he is from labour party though) He/she might be on holiday. Please keep chasing him up. Lab, Conser, or Lab dem, doesn't matter. What you said reminds me another thing. Anybody...
i just noticed a funny thing. in the HC 974, the HO also changed the SEGS rules, making more students can get the benefit from the scheme. but they don't make those changes applied retrospectively. that means students commencing their studies before 01/05/2006 can't get the benefit from the changes...
Dear all, As Joseph has briefed you, the meeting was found to be useful. 11 people attended the meeting, they are Christine Lee’s team (3), British Turkish Committee for Dialogue (BTCD - 2), South African community representative (1), Joseph (558AM), SaynotoHO (2), Morerightsforimmigrants and me. Th...
Well Said. Well Done! I posted this in the South African forum http://www.greattrek.co.uk/showthread.php?p=1295#post1295 1) The law can be changed by an act of parliament in fact the MP for great Grimsby Austin Mitchell has put forward EDM1912 asking that MP's vote against the changes to the Immigra...
Dear all, I have a problem. It is about one of the weaknesses that I perceived of our campaign. Because of the difference in the types of visa different people hold (HSMP/WP), in nationality, and in the preferred approach (lobbying/public attention/court action), We "seem" to be divided in...
Agree.
Finding a lawyer who see eye to eye with us is vital. I don't know if this Sunday's meeting would make things clearer or not. Don't hold your breath, but we'll try. See how it goes, and rise to the occasion.
Proposed place: TBC, London Proposed time: 12 noon 16th Sunday It will be an opportunity for us to meet up and personally I want to meet Christine Lee's team so that we can move towards developing a more coherent strategy. There are now about 4 people including me and Christine Lee's team member (do...
sowahat wrote Quote personally I do not think that appealing to the public will do us any good. my understanding that ordinary people are at least mildly averse to immigration in general. They actually do not make any difference between people who came here on WP and HSMP and asylum seekers. Former...

ON THE STATEMENT OF CHANGES IN IMMIGRATION RULES (HC 974): I am not sure if it will work, but read on. After all, if all of us think it will work, it might just will. :? Thanks rooi_ding for finding out the price, which is indeed high but not impossible for us as a group. Depending on what is an ann...
