I left uni around 10 years ago with a debt of £45,000.
After 10 years of continual payments adding up to thousands and thousands of pounds my debt is...£45,500.
My peers with rich parents who could afford the fees upfront won't be paying 9% of their salary for 30 years.

How many trans girls were even part of girlguiding? When has this ever caused a genuine issue?? This just feels like giving into bigots making up problems, and further alienating a marginalised group.
Trans girls can no longer join Girlguiding, organisation says bbc.in/3Ky3uKi

Hospital league tables are nasty, simplistic, retrograde & counterproductive. They will demoralise staff, generate cultures of fear & fail to value all that is unquantifiable in healthcare - kindness, compassion, humanity, discretionary effort. My piece:

I agree with @RMTunion Mick Lynch
Piers Morgan "There is no money"
Mick Lynch "there is plenty of money in the country, its just a matter of whether you want to get some of it and distribute it more equitably" #LabourConference #LabourConference2024
