Interesting.

UK Visa services outsourced. No idea on the effect on those looking to get a visa for wives or girl friends for the UK. Note the nearly  £6 charge per email.

This is nothing but prejudice and jealousy towards our wives and girlfriends or boyfriends and husbands. Canada is also a nightmare now. Very sad that you have a job or money in the bank but the government makes decisions based on totally inappropriate information and denies visas for even a visit. Oh don't worry if you're really wealthy you are allowed to buy your way in. Sad very sad indeed!
