Ive been reading this topic with interest,and just like to put my views. I have been living in Turkey for 5 years now after retiring, and have lost count of the number of women who come here, fall for the charms of a Turkish man, marry him, and the next thing you know, he has got a visa to live in England. These women do everything to get him a visa. Why, when they marry him, do they not insist on living in Turkey. No, because they believe its easy money in the UK. Also, when we come to live here, we have to prove we can live without working, They dont. As long as they have someone to sponsor them, they are ok. I think what the British Government should impose, is to say, if you marry a Turk, Morrocan etc, then you must live in their country for say 3 years before the husband can apply for a visa. This may help sorting the genuine, from the "Just doing it to get a visa" sort. Thats my rant, and I realise that some Turkish men are genuine, so I apologise if they feel I am just lumping them in with the bad ones. All I am saying that this issue needs to be sorted before there is no room or money left for the English.
