Tuition Fees March

[Alcatraz]

In that case I apologise to the students that haven't heard of planes trains and auto-mobiles. Or hitching.

Along with invading the wrong tory building, I'm starting to think that the tories are right with one of their angles for justifying the cuts.

[jump]

To be fair, tickets down to London from Birmingham for this sold out about 3 weeks ago.

Above 20 quid for a protest that wont do shit.....oh you were right about Thatcher

It certainly won't do shit as less than 5% of students give a shit about it, that much is certainly true.

Hitching is free, tho of course, it's only mad murderers that ever give anyone a lift, eh?

Didn't they bother asking their mums for a lift? I thought that was the standard student thing nowadays?

f**king BBC - talking to people currently working inside millbank tower. Who are repeatedly saying it looks worse than it is, no-one is frightened, etc etc

then the presenter asks are some people frightened? have they gone home early? it must be ever so frightening!! blah blah blah. trying to put words in peoples mouths.

Grrrr so much for the objective BBC. :angry:

Wished I worked by Milbank so I can use it as an excuse to take the rest of the day off!

[jump]

Me too

Though i'd probably join the rest of the students on college green. On second thoughts its a bit chilly out there today

This pic made me laugh...

thanks to the eu and new liebours open door policy we now have to pay for so many other peoples children that we can no longer afford to fund our own

as for so few turning out most of them will have lectures on a weekday and its an expensive day out to boot

Fairly certain all non-UK citizens have to pay fees that already well exceed 9k, even EU students

glad to see that your own education was taxpayers money well-spent at least.

[eFestivals]

Nah, EU students pay the same as UK students. Non-EU pay huge fees though

You sure that's right?

Not even UK students pay the same as some UK students, so I doubt those from outside the UK are getting a better deal than those within the UK.

Agree with Blinky, except I don't have kids, I just get f***ed off when I hear some bloody student on the news today going 'boo hoo I only have £30 a week left to spend, how can I go out' (not exact sentence, but the guy was ranting about that) - ffs get a part time job you lazy bastard, it's not hard to get a job in tescos / sainsburys (which did for my 3 years of uni) / asda etc.

the tory HQ is the wrong building?

I was going by what was either posted in this thread or said to me by someone or other earlier - that it's not their HQ, it was merely their election campaign headquarters. I'm not sure if that's the case or not?

I'm surprised that anyone uses Millbank Tower - it's been on a demolishion list for at least 20 years.

[eFestivals]

the rules for eu residents studying in the uk is the same as for uk residents

Which UK residents?

If I moved to Scotland to be educated at a Uni, I don't get free fees. I'd be hugely surprised if other EU citizens did.

what, so a welsher going to a scottish uni still has to pay fees?

Someone chucked a fire extinguisher from the roof, missed people below by a couple of meters. Caught on TV, there's your front page photo tomorrow.

[ampersand]

yeah, but they're cheaper than other UK fees
