‘STUDENTS SHOULD PAY HIGHER FEES, MORE INTEREST ON LOANS AND GET LESS GRANTS’
CBI Director General Richard Lambert, like most Baby Boomers, didn’t leave university with a whopping great debt to pay off. When he was a student, higher education was free. The product of a well-funded education system, Lambert now heads up the UK’s top business lobby. And what does the CBI say?
Middle aged bankers and businessmen got really greedy and overheated the economy. Now the country’s gone bust, we want unemployed students to pay for our mistakes.
Perhaps Mr Lambert would like to send the government a cheque for all the fees and loans he never had to pay while he studied Oxford?
