On my soap box again
Seriously disappointed with the vote yesterday...not the result most rational people had hoped for. Blinking education system in the UK is in a mess at all levels. Secondary school's have far too many conflicting targets and prescriptive approach to the curriculum...I speak from first hand knowledge due to my work with the school governors. As a recruiter as well as a mother I was completely against the Labour government's policy to get over 60% of the population to University. No reason to do that, perfectly ok to have people with vocational courses or apprenticeships etc. It's completely devalued degrees and made the whole situation a farce. If they hadn't tried to be so inclusive the funding wouldn't be as much of an issue. And as for this arguement that half of them won't end up paying it back...laughable to think that makes it acceptable. No wonder so many of that generation think debt's ok.....
It would be laughable if only it wasn’t so tragic.

I am delighted to report that 'Strident Student' has obtained an audience with Mr. Clegg and will undoubtedly live up to her name berating/rebuking him mercilessly so he is fully aware of the Steel City student's views on his change of heart!
