The online experience of #CIEP2024 is excellent. I’m lurking in the Lobby, but so grateful to be able to participate in even a minimal way in what is a very difficult week for me. Well done to the team! @The_CIEP

The govt ignored its own advisers’ recommendations to lower the income requirement for family visas before raising it by £20,000.
The change goes against advice of Home Office’s Migration Advisory Committee, which urged govt to lower income requirement.
