    Government has another good idea shock

    http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/new...cle4387090.ece

    Visa curbs on foreign brides and bridegrooms to tackle forced marriages
    The age at which someone can enter the UK as a spouse from overseas will increase from 18 to 21


    Then they go and mess it up a bit:

    But proposals to force foreign spouses to learn English before they arrive have been watered down after running into opposition. Instead, spouses will be required to promise to take basic English lessons within six months of arriving in the UK or risk the revocation of their marriage visa allowing them to stay.

    I like the "running into opposition" bit. I oppose my tax bill, could you drop that too?
    Bored.
