Universities may well have had to find extra funding after cuts were made from the Government, but surely it should be priority of the government to ensure education is available to those of all backgrounds - and so no cuts should have been made in the first place.

With a £3,000 tuition fee at university prior to 2012, most graduates were already facing over a decade of debt, trying to pay off an ever increasing sum due to interest being added to the loan amount. By hiking the tuition fee up to £9,000 for a university degree, surely this is only more of a burden to those seeking higher education and better paid jobs.

The higher price is most likely to also put off individuals living in poorer areas, and thus decreasing social mobility. It's a huge amount of debt to have hanging over your head, and consequently people are more likely to think twice about furthering their education.

£9,000 is am unimaginable amount of money for most people. Even though it's a loan, and you can pay it back gradually, not many people would want to start their careers with that hanging over their heads. It just makes it really hard for people with less money to get an education, and to end up getting influential, important, or even well paid jobs. It means, for example, that government will always be run by the upper middle classes who have little idea of the realities of those they are making laws about, and management positions will also be taken by those who are better off, and who have parents to support them. So yes, hiking the fees was a really bad idea.

Money shouldn't exist period, let alone being used as a way to enslave young people. Abolish the UK and that way all the people who've been forced to pay very steep tuition fees will get to have their debt undone
