ID cards will be issued to non-EU students and spouses from regional offices in Birmingham, Cardiff, Croydon, Glasgow, Liverpool, and Sheffield from Tuesday 25th November.
No Borders South Wales will be holding a protest outside the office in Cardiff on the launch day. We call for protests outside each of the other offices on the same day.
