Re: spending millions on poor kids

Everyone pays the fee's[sic] through student loans, there are no poor kids getting a free university education.

Not free, but paid by various bodies.

I talked to my nephew about this not so long ago. He benefited from a scholarship based on merit, and a bursary based on means-testing. Overall, much closer to my (Thatcher-era) experience than the headlines would have you believe. Seems to me the biggest scandal - apart from those of politicisation - is lack of transparency.
