What the petition asks
In light of the Windrush many children & grandchildren applied under the Windrush scheme as a result of their relative coming to help rebuild the UK. 11 months on and we are still waiting. Waiting times, fees, and eligibility requirements in general for Non EU citizens to settle are very hostile.
