Girl I have no sympathy mate you called the police on the person that brought you to the UK and spent so much to support you. Now you can see money don't fall from trees here. And that's not the issue but the main thing is that you haven't given any tangible reasons for leaving your marriage other than he doesn't wash his teeth before kissing u.

@@shirldey you come here and support shit have you left your marriage because your husband doesn't brush his teeth or better still you are not married as usual. If this was your brother how would you feel that he brought a woman over only to be used.

The immigration laws are strict, and people are afraid to harbour or employ someone in case they are an illegal immigrant. They would be fined a minimum of 20.000 pounds. Also, the homelessness route is better for her because if she lives with someone, the government will be under no obligation to give her housing because they would no longer consider her homeless.The laws are tough and strict.

Never mind the naysayers especially those who have never lived in the UK. You survived you made it!! Its very hard especially when you have encountered a broken marriage! There is nothing as bad as being homeless because, even then, how do you work without a place to sleep? Even paying for hotels and airbnb i must say, you must have saved up alot to achieve that! This iwas a literal life or death situation and you made it, I cant wait to see whats in store for you.
