Rejected petition Student University Fees Should Be Equalised Across the UK
Rejected on
Political agreement should be reached on a standard university tuition fee for students across the whole of the UK. With the near tripling of university fees, students in England are being asked to pay and consequently help fund a deficit in the public finances whilst students from other parts of the UK are not being asked to carry the same burden. This is unfair; the cost should be spread equally across the whole of the United Kingdom.
