The permit has been granted and Angus is officially staying in the country. Your pressure forced the authorities to rethink their decision so thank you for sticking with this fight until the end.

Angus Mitchell is a well spoken and hard working bass player who has recently been working for a printing company in Truro. Unfortunately, his work permit expires on the 6th of May, which would see him having to return to South Africa; and he really doesn\'t want to. He\'s now the member of a local Rock \'n\' Roll band (kinky charlie) along with Matthew Dixon and Jack Milne. He is vital to the progress of this band, which will undoubtedly be very successful one day soon! But time is a luxury no one can afford, and so it is imperative that we get as many people as possible to sign this petition so we can try to keep Angus in the country, and so he can continue to contribute to the band in a way only he can. For those of you who\'ve read this far, thanks very much. We hope you sign this petition and pass it on to whoever else you can, and maybe we\'ll see you at a gig soon! Thanks again :) www.kinkycharlie.com www.myspace.com/kinkycharlie

We are currently drafting a formal letter to the local immigration office to explain the impact Angus has on our community. Email your local representative to demand they look into his work permit status today. Post the petition link on Facebook and tag your local representatives to pressure them for a response.

The momentum behind this campaign is incredible. Now take this energy to your local representatives and demand they let Angus stay to finish what he started with Kinky Charlie.
