Blair ‘likely to win fees vote’Tony Blair will probably win the crunch vote on controversial plans for student top-up fees, the Tories say.

“But the annual Mori poll for student accommodation company UNITE suggests 79% of students would have rethought their choice of university “to some extent” if it had charged fees of £3,000.”

“>BBC News]


I was actually asked by somebody from MORI about this, oooohhhh. I always wondered who they asked when they did those. I was late for my final year project because it took for ever. The researcher (or what ever they’re called got to card PPP or something after starting at A getting through the alphabet 2 before that)

On a more serious note, I’m not convinced that giving Graduates £25,000 worth of debt is a good thing. How is one expected to buy a house when your still massively in debt. My basic problem with the whole thing is, why do we need 50% in higher education anyway, I don’t think university degrees are suitable for some of the jobs people do after university anyway.
