I read an article recently about the Chinese ambassador in London who commented on how ridiculously difficult it is for Chinese to get Visas to the UK. It was before a visit by a top Chinese politician (I don’t think it was the President) so got big headlines and caused a lot of embarrassment .
As a result I believe they changed the rules to make it easier. Although I’m not sure it will help you much as it was mostly talking about business visitors to the UK.
The change was very interesting though because they effectively added China to the Schengen arrangement. Meaning that if your wife has a visa for France she can now go to England on the France visa. But as I said this seemed to be mostly relating to business and not residence or even holiday.
Please check the details of this though as I am only going by recollection of a recent article I read.
