....why do people in England pay to go to Uni when people in Scotland go for free?
And why do Scottish MP's get to vote on this issue? Does this mean they voted for English people to pay and Scottish people not to? Huh figures!
A question about the Scottish and Student Loan's.....? This came up in Question Time not that long ago, and one of the Labour Panellists, I believe was Ed Miliband,simply replied, that the English agenda on spending on education was to add more support for pre school, primary school, and high school education, and not to give as much support to English unis. What was interesting is that Most, if not all the people that were on that panel where not in favour of Free uni education. Most of the younger generation do, as well as their parents. Interesting thought - Labour are always saying after 10 years in power they must put more effort in to listening to the public... looks like more talk and not enough action to me.
Scotland get a budget of 鎷?0 billion each year, and it is up to Scootish MSPs how that money is spent.
Scotland has its own Devolved Parliament and the smart MSPs have passed the Bill for the Scottish education system for no tuition fees, and more funds to support students. Another Bill looks likely to get passed by the SNP Executive to distance itself even more from the English uni Gov't agenda, by scrapping the paying back of Student Loans.
The British Tory Party is against free Uni fees, the Labour Party still is, the only thing they have done is to give a Little additional funds for grants for English students - really not enough in my opinion. The only party (I Think) that would do anything about this injustice is the Lib Dems.
You are right about an English Devolved Parliament, or at the very least the blocking of Scottish, Welsh, and N. Irish MPs being able to vote on a decision that will effect only England.
Why should a MP from Blackburn, Scotland be able to vote on a matter that would effect the people of Blackburn, England?
A question about the Scottish and Student Loan's.....? Revenge for hitting us with Poll tax and the smoking ban before you!
A question about the Scottish and Student Loan's.....? Exactly, set us free and you can fight your own fecking war !
A question about the Scottish and Student Loan's.....? No Scotland has its own rule on its Education but when it comes to world affairs its down to make the decision.
Ps the Royal Bank of chip shops sponsor unis in Scotland.lol
A question about the Scottish and Student Loan's.....? 1) The English have voted on scottish issues (without a single mp there ) for 60 years.
2)This lead to devolution.
3) The Scottish have a budget which they spend how they like. This differs from how the english spend theirs...but that is democracy. They choose how they work within their budget.
4)Call for a English parliment. This won't happen though, because this is essentially handing Scotland and Wales independence and..England wants to bury and build all sorts of radioactive crap all over these countries in the next few years.
A question about the Scottish and Student Loan's.....? sounds like RACISM coming from you . if you check your FACTS ENGULUND voted on Scottish matters without our say up till 1997; did we hear the english protest about our second class treatment ?. ill yell you they did not. you lot only gave a damn when crap like the poll tax was thrust upon you years after Scotland was burdened with it.
SO IN SHORT YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW
as for our uni being free that is just a case of the SE spending it's money in a different manner to england. if you want to ***** about it moan to your MP'S till it is changed and stop blaming Scotland for your govmnt fookin you around.
A question about the Scottish and Student Loan's.....? The Scottish mp's voted for free students fees to go to university but Westminster has voted for England students to pay to go to university the labour spin doctors would of ordered the mp's from Scotland and wales to vote the student fees in and why does these mp's from Scotland and wales have a vote at Westminster without them labour would never win a vote they would become the minority the Tory's would love it if Scotland and wales mp's could not vote they would be the major party in Westminster and allways will be
A question about the Scottish and Student Loan's.....? Because most of the politicians in England do not wish for education to be free. In Scotland they do. It's as simple as that really. :-)
A question about the Scottish and Student Loan's.....? Yawn....the same question has been asked by the same sort of Trolls millions of times before. It was funny at first, but now is simply tiresome.
Ol' Blue Eyes:
Yeah, you've got a Scot on the back of your bank note, and do you want to know why? It's because The Bank of England was founded by a Scot. Get over it. you are simply a sad racist.
