Oh I would re-read the thread if I were you and at least make sure your story about VBSI policy fits with a11s before posting again. He has not only excluded legal action (says it wont work and is too late) but has also excluded co-operation with others including Stephen Kong and other lawyers on l...
Quote from VBSI website: "Voice of Britain's Skilled Immigrants" Should VBSI be renamed into VSBSI (Voice of Some of Britain's Skilled Immigrants)? Should the UK Government be renamed into the Government of Some of the UK Population? Quote from VBSI website: "We are planning legal ac...
you will see some serious criticism. I can see criticism, but I cannot see what you expect us to do. What would you do, if you were in my shoes? People trusted the VBSI to represent them I am one of these people. When, a month ago, I found out about the VBSI, I started to do what I could to represe...
I don’t know from when and how VBSI become CL’s private fan club. I joined the VBSI very recently, but to the best of my knowledge, the group has collaborated (fruitfully) with CL since inception in May 2006. All information is available on the website. Anything excepting for CL’s campaign is exclu...
gaurav, could you please email to <info at vbsi.org.uk> and I will send you the dossier handed to Liam Byrne yesterday? Have you asked Jim Cousins (Labour MP for Newcastle upon Tyne Central) to sign the EDM? Everyone, please do not issue snide attacks at the VBSI. If you feel you need more transpare...
Now is it possible that we can start JR any time we like or there is some time limitation for it, as we heard earlier that time period for JR is three months. That's the other thing about JR. You can't bring a general JR so only the particular claimants will get the benefit of any judgment immediat...
I think we need to find a right lwayer - to get some real legal advice and this could be lead by VBSI chibuya, please, join the VBSI and you will be responsible for obtaining independent (of CL and SK) legal advice. Mona, a11 never said that SK was a bad guy. It is gratifying to see that the VBSI h...
The VBSI is now receiving inquiries from overseas with questions like "Please tell me within how much time we can get Permanent Residency in UK, and can we do Business in UK after we get PR." It seems that, inadvertently, the VBSI became a more trusted source of information than the IND, p...
I donot think the next one should be in China town again - one reason is we need to get people from all the background involeved the other reason is there is a danger that Chinese people become the target of goverment as they are making troubles! The VBSI tried to organise an additional simultaneou...
tarzan, WP_Holder_05_2002, I added these letters from your MPs to http://www.vbsi.org.uk/index.php?page=r ... om_the_mps , if you do not mind.
Everybody, please send any info you might find useful for the campaign to <info at vbsi.org.uk>.
I have personally met Andrew sometime ago and I am sure that he is very nice person and he will work for justice. Did you meet him re ILR45 campaign? If not, it may be useful to meet again. It's one thing when a kind person gives a promise on paper, and the sense of obligation is much stronger when...
as long as i'm transfering money via BACS proof of payment is there, not too much worried about that It's not the point. They, the law firm, should vouch that they will use the money for this particular ILR45 Judicial Review. Surely your bank statement would show where your payment went, but not wh...

Do we have a postal address that we can use as a permanent VBSI address? Or at least an address which we can use for receiving the official letter from VBSI in discussion? Why not use the address of CL's firm? Also, someone based in London may pay a visit to Harvey & Filby & Kong and act as...
How can we get more information, such as - if anyone has really applied for the judicial review? You may have missed this post a few pages back in this thread: http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewtopic.php?t=7201&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=1290 I believe it's all information the VB...
It seems the guys from VBSI got tired. I have no information on the people who applied for the judicial review. Any ideas how we can find it out? People are deflated, yes. But also patient. The TS Department should now be taking instructions from their client (i.e. the Home Office) if the latter in...
I received a bulk reply to my/our bulk letter to L. Byrne (signied by Ms J Dulieu, Correspondence Team). It repeats, word for word, previous rebukes signed by different HO officials. In essence: * It is not desirable to let us get ILR according to the old rules. What is the object of their desires i...
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,1072-2049791,00.html Who wants the Abolition of Parliament Bill? It appears that the Labour Government has much more grandiose plans than "simply ask" legal migrants to "wait another year" - it wants to abolish this nuisance, the Parliamen...
Any more thoughts.... I posted this here : http://vbsi.org.uk/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=46 Everyone agrees that raising public awareness is a priority. I suggest to use the pre-IT method: Produce a leaflet stating : the problem the intended course of action sources of information (including the VBSI s...
There is a similar organization in the states called the VSI Is this the one: http://immigrationvoice.org/ ? Hello, Thank you for contacting us with this information. We will go ahead and post this information on our website and circulate this information in the news media in US. I went through you...
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,1072-2049791,00.html Who wants the Abolition of Parliament Bill? by David Howarth (LibDem MP for Cambridge) Hardly anyone has noticed, but British democracy is sleepwalking into a sinister world of ministerial power -------------- It is not off the topic here,...
I am asking what the corporate policy at WorkPermit.com is on this. I subscribe to WorkPermit.com email newsletter, and this is how I learnt about the ILR45 change back in March. But a story about opposition to it and the VBSI has never been reported there. Is it a part of the corporate policy? Why...
Yes ssi that is the one, you might consider joining the VBSI yourself. I tried. On 25 June I wrote to info@vbsi.org.uk : "I fully support the action by the VBSI. Please let me know if I can help in any way." Reply from the VBSI on 27 June: "we will be in touch with you soon" I p...
