- Conservatives Pledge to Abolish University
Tuition Fees
PARLIAMENTARY Spokesman Mark Bigley announced this week that Conservatives would abolish university tuition fees – described as a ‘tax on learning’.
Students and families across Southport would stand to gain up to £3,000 per year if the policy were to cross the bridge of the white paper stage.
Across the Sefton area there are already 6,326 full-time students aged 18 or and a further 6,424 students aged 16-17 would receive better advise and assistance by gaining from such a policy - Many of these students are from Southport.
In his parliamentary statement, Bigley said, “Labour’s university tuition fees are a tax on learning. They have let down hard-working families across Southport, leaving young people with huge debts when they start work. Labour’s interference in admissions has universities tied up in red tape."
"We need a fair deal for students and universities. We want every student to be able to aspire to the top universities, every university to offer places purely on merit, and every student to be studying something worthwhile.”
“Our policy is fairer than the Liberal Democrat alternative – in Scotland, they still charge tuition fees to students after they graduate. Worse, Liberal Democrats would force the poorest students in Southport to live at home and would not guarantee university students a full three-year course. Under Conservatives, the university sector will be smaller, better focused, and open to all who deserve to be there.”
