Youth Mobility visa (former Tier 5 Youth Mobility)

The Youth Mobility Scheme is an exchange programme for young adults from participating countries. The Youth Mobility visa is granted for up to 2 years. During this time the visa holders can experience life in the UK and work here.

A Youth Mobility visa cannot be extended and those who already held this visa once in the past will not be able to apply under the Youth Mobility Scheme again. However, under the current law, Youth Mobility Scheme visa holders can switch to a Skilled Worker (work) visa from inside the UK. The Youth Mobility visa holders can also switch to an Unmarried Partner or a Spouse visa from inside the UK.

What is consisted within the UK's legal system. 

# data[].attributes.body
There are 4 principles sources in the UK law which are: Legislation, Common Law, European Union Law (EU) and European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR).
Now about Legislation this is created by the Legislature but the most important part of this is the Acts of Parliament whom has the only power to pass laws which apply in all 4 countries.
The Common Law is an legal system of England and Wales so the decisions of the Senior Appellate Courts become part of the law.
The EU is the UK's member state of the EU basically this means that the law takes precedence over the UK's Laws.
However, the ECHR is the member state of the council of Europe, the UK is an signatory to the ECHR which enables on all the courts in the UK to protect the rights identified in the ECHR which was changed in 2009.

Victoria once again knocking it out of the park. This campaign designed for Metro Trains, Melbourne, had a single proposition - getting hit by a train is a dumb way to die, and highly avoidable. The campaign has been highly successful, both in terms of advertising accolades and percentage of take up by the public.

Trains travel in a straight line. If you get hit by a train, you've probably done something wrong which makes getting hit by a train one of the dumbest ways to die.

Rather than a typically earnest public service announcement, McCann opted for a mix of offbeat humour, a catchy tune and a collection of amiable animated characters to launch our message as an online music video under the compelling title Dumb Ways to Die. Within 24 hours of its launch on 16 November 2012, the Dumb Ways to Die song reached the top 10 chart of iTunes and was ranked number six on the singer/songwriter category on the global iTunes chart just 48 hours later.

The video has now amassed over 150 million views and 4.8 million shares. In February 2015, Dumb Ways to Die is still the third most shared ad of all time. Supported by an integrated advertising campaign, it spawned a plethora of global parodies and spin-offs with over 35 million combined views, attracting massive global media attention for Metro Trains and its safety message.

The first game app climbed to number one in 22 countries including the US, UK, Canada and Australia, with over 103 million downloads and 7 billion unique plays coming from every country in the world.

In November 2014, Dumb Ways to Die 2: The Games was released, taking the safety message even further. It became the number one app in over 90 countries, with more than 80 million people pledging to be safe around trains and nearly four billion mini-game plays in just three months.

Dumb Ways to Die was the most awarded campaign in the history of Cannes (with 28 Lions, including five Grands Prix).

More importantly, 127 million people have stated that they would be safer around trains because of the campaign.
