Jim:
This is why youngsters flock to Europe to find work and this is the door that Brexit has closed
This door has NOT been closed. Brexit has not yet been achieved.

Higher education has been placed out of the reach of poorer families by the fees demanded - it is now the sole domain of the Middle Classes What, no higher education for the upper classes? Obviously a preposterous statement. Also following the move (by a Labour government) to get 50% of students into higher education the numbers benefitting has risen, not fallen. The 'fees demanded' are, effectively, on the "never never" as the students will only repay the loans needed for them if they end up in very well paid employment.
