I think I'm going to go....
it is a massive issue. spending cuts need to be made but do you know the country spends over 2 billion a year solving problems directly caused by alcohol? If that was even halved and pumped into education in general think how much of a difference that would make?
i didn't go marching because i live in Guernsey. we are in the UK and governed by the government. However i will be facing international tuition fees because we're not officially in the EU so yeah that's another problem we face.
the bottom line of it is that too many unis are open and too many people go so it's not exclusivised like it should be therefore no one can possibly be funded because what you do for one you do for another it seems. there is no system of hierarchy anymore to any great deal and the people going to the top unis are getting penalized for being clever and able because they have to pay more for the privilege under the new proposed system whereas the poor less able will be subsidized to go on a three year jolly. I do believe the less able people with genuine intelligence should be helped though.
All three main parties support tutition fees and have raised them time and time again - those of you who can vote all voted for it when you placed a mark in the box next to either Labour, Conservative or Liberal Democrat.
Why is anybody who did the above suprised about this latest blatent disregard for the British people?
Well UKIP are against tuition fees yeah, or you could vote for any other party or nobody at all - but at least then you aren't voting for it.
There's no point everybody pretending to be suprised by this latest lie, they do it all of the time - both in and out of office.
If you don't like it then don't vote for it.
I would go but I don't know anyone going, and I don't fancy going to a protest on my own!
