Get rid of the financial requirements so that non eu partners can able to stay and work in the uk.
The only requirements need to be married or have a family with british national.
However, both of them can not claim any benefits or funds for 2 years.
I am british and married with japanese national. My spouse can not stay and work in the uk because we can not meet financial requirements.
It's very unfair system for british national with non eu partners.
