I'm presuming by working 30 hours a week you had very little life outside of work, especially if you were studying at the same time. I'm at college full time, and have work which i'm required to do at home like any other student. I work all day Sundays, and also Saturday mornings in a newsagent...

I intend on working throughout, and did even before the proposed rise in fee's. As for not working with a 20k debt, if you take £4000 for accommodation (per year), £1500 for meals etc, and £500 for an annual bus pass, as well as your £3200 fee's that leaves you with a debt of £9,000 per year...

So i should more a less give up 4 or 5 years of my life to save for education, in which i'd still be nowhere near having enough money to be debt free. I've worked since 12, and still have 2 jobs, if you expect kids to work every free day they have, spend no money on any form of luxury, just to...

Great idea, so you feel teenagers should have no luxuries for 3 or 4 years and put all there money towards further education, and still have NOWHERE near enough money to cover the costs of University education. Another suggestion in there which has nothing to do with me revolving around the...

So your suggesting that all of a sudden making me and other students cut back completely on any form of luxuries to pay for our education is fair, for wanting to better ourselves. This being a burden placed on us students thanks to a debt that is nothing to do with those who will be studying in...

Grow up. I dont know if you're looking for a reaction, because i fail to see any sense in your post. I work, which enables ME (not my parents) to pay for my driving lessons, because its something I wanted to do, and something i'll need to do at somepoint in my life anyway (personally). Oh, and...

Sorry Kneeon, but as a student and one who's certainly looking at going to Uni, i'm going to have to agree with you. I wanted to attend the protests, but i had important lessons at college which I couldnt miss, as well as a lack of funds thanks to bloody driving lessons. The protests had my...

I know that, but we wont be in an economic downturn for the next 50 years will we. At one point they will start hiring, people will still retire, people will look for career changes and so on, not to mention that some forces are still hiring. In 5 years time hopefully that'll all of changed...

So those that DO do worthwhile courses, which are a benefit to society, should pay far inflated prices for those who do the courses which are a waste of time? I want to be in the police force or possibly the secret service (obviously this would be difficult to achieve), and thus have just this...
