Objection!
The Home Office seems to be desperate to reduce immigration.
It's good to seek a more effective way to control immigration but it imposes a heavy burden on applicants as well. I think they put restrictions on applying for a visa at the first stage to prevent immigration, but viewed from the perspective of people who want to get married, it's not good for people's future.
I want to ask them how you got married (if you are married person)?
Some people have a sudden marriage, and some get married with someone after getting to know them for years and years. That's ok, everyone is different.
But without any reference to married couples of different nationalities or the same nationality, generally people think about their future life seriously when you get married. Apart from people who intend to stay illegally, it's not an easy decision to live in another country forever, in addition it's not easy to go and come all the distance between the UK and Asian countries, especially when you are older.
Some people worry about their future and life in another county. I think, in general everybody has apprehensive feelings like that for big decisions in your life. But for international couples of British and non-EU nationalities, it's very much a situation in which you can't have a chance to live together casually to decide marriage, even if you want to know more about each other. Seems like they make couples leap to judgement without as much information as possible for making a decision or deny international marriage itself. But the situation will become more serious under the new rule.
Seems like they make things as difficult as possible!

(Note from i-ADNES' bf - the Home Office is desperate to reduce 'net' immigration. This means that if a British person has to leave the country because it is so difficult to get the right visa, immigration is reduced by 2 and not 1 - I'm sure the Home Office sees this is a win!).
