Oh, god, I can't stop crying. So much goodness & love at the heart of the Tory party. 'Yes, your honour, I infected a swathe of the populace so I could love my little girl & mah lady wife'. 'Crime' is not a legal definition, you know, it's about the HEART.
There's a House in Downing Street
They call it the House of the Rising Son
It's the Home of Many a Poor Rich Boy
And Lord I know I'm One
Reminded of Forster's line in A Passage to India about how the phrase 'women & children' is calculated to drive the ruling class Englishman into a frenzy of self-righteousness.
Okay, boys, this is how we play it:

#WifeAndChild
#DontPlayPolitics

Now off you go
But, just to be clear, wanting Leave to Remain or a visa to come here so you can care for your wife and child IS a crime.
It's simple. There is nothing political about families. As long as family is white, heterosexual, & wealthy, it is above politics. Take tRoyal Family for instance. They are above politics. Does Cummings have a white, het & wealthy family?

Ergo, not political. Off you go now
