Rejected petition The Government should take the future of young people into greater consideration

It's a privilege to live in a country that provides opportunities for young people to excel in their lives. However the university tuition fees have increased from the understandable £3000 a year to the unsustainable £9000 a year.

More details

Every person that finishes their undergraduate course with a bachelors degree should look forward to bigger and better things, in terms of their desired careers. On the contrary, as a result of the terribly expensive university tuition fees, the goal or dream a young person may aspire to reach would, unfortunately, be tremendously harder to achieve. Finishing university with debt should not be a way a young person should start their working life.
