Mate, that story has to be one in a million. The ruling has been brought in by the current government to fiddle the numbers and claim they're reducing immigration, when it means nothing, as it's a tiny, tiny percentage of legal EU migration.

My girlfriends mother would not be some drain on resources, she would not be claiming benefits, her husband has been working for NGOs as a teacher for disabled students in deprived and war-torn countries for decades. And yet he can't move back to his own country with his wife. Madness. Especially seeing as wealthy oligarchs can BUY British citizenship for a few million quid.

The tories stand for the preservation of wealth for those who have it, and keeping the rest of the country quiet. UKIP are just an even more extreme version, full of ex-Tory outcasts, and funded by the same people.

Forgot to mention, better yet, under current legislation these spouses can get multiple entry visas, allowing them to spend a certain amount of time here, per year, providing they don't stay for too long in one go. If they, within their rights, take those who control immigration to court and then lose the case they then are banned from getting a multiple entry visa, and relegated to a tourist visa. f*ck yeah, justice....wait, what?!
