Should University Tuition Fees be free for all those who wish to study?

[-:Undertaker:-]

Let be clear. I am a Labour supporter. And a formal running contender for the Labour party. As much as I hate the morals of the Conservative party as well as their partners the Cinderella party. Tutuion fee's need to rise for many reasons.

I am guessing the moral reference is due to the fact that the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats both lied over this issue, to which you must also look at the Labour Party who a) introduced the tuition fees in the first place & b) promised not to introduce them before an election (just like the ConDem government!).

I'd like to know why you also slam the Liberal Democrats and the Conservatives when all three parties, especially the Conservatives and Labour are the exact same - you can't actually name one major policy difference between the pair and i'd challenge you or anybody else to try and do so. Even if they do attempt to make themselves seem different on one issue, how can we trust them?

In short, no it should not be free as the country has to float, but the increase is uncalled for and will only make the country suffer further down the line. It's a quick fix that is draining the graduates of tomorrow.

If you asked me who I thought should contribute to Education more, I offer only this: Businesses offer nothing towards the Education Fund, yet companies like BP earn millions, billions and possibly trillions of pounds. No tax is imposed on them, and instead the working class are taxed. There is a very wrong picture in the UK, and it will only get worse if Tuition Fees get raised.

If you noticed that there is no mention of the Liberal Democrats, that is because I do not believe they should be in government & that a right to recall our votes for them, for false promises to push to abolish tuition fees.

I would say do not try and turn the blame on business (of which BP pays a large slice of UK pensions) as business pays its tax and creates real wealth, even if i'm not a fan of large corporations such as BP anyway - business has little to do with this, the real issue is greedy government that is far too big in size and spends money on things that most people would not want their money spent on if they had any control over it.

I myself have banged on for years about government spending and how for the amount of tax we pay, we get a poor deal back in the sense that billions are given to the likes of the European Union, foreign aid and goivernment itself - if you are angry then ask yourself that why, for the amount of tax we pay are we getting such a bad return in terms of services?

Either we put Britain first or we don't - come next election lets actually do something and get the elite out.
