Petition Educational & Health divide between England, Wales and Scotland

More details

Today, there is ever noticeably a gap between society in England, Wales and Scotland, in regards to both education and health.

For those wishing to continue onto further education in England, students are expected to pay a staggering amount for a full or even part-time course.
Whereas those that are from Scotland or Wales and studying within Scotland and Wales will pay 60% less for the same study programme.

This thus creating a educational divide between England, Wales and Scotland.

This same theory applies to prescription medicine charges, where again, people living in England are charged for prescription medicine of £7.80, which is expected to increase by 20p. Yet those living in Wales and Scotland receive free prescription medicine.
