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.
