The comments:
"There's 76 solicitors will be made redundant. We'll buy in the service, because [they are] incompetent. They're not doing a good job. What I want to look at now is the women so it is ongoing, I would like it to be at great pace.”
Really says it all, doesn’t it.

"Permanent Residence" as ILR for EU citizens were known at the time was so "almost automatic" that I spent 2k on immigration solicitors alone, not to mention that I had to ask my English screenwriter colleagues to write a letter for me to submit to the Home Office to explain what *is* a screenwriter
