Restore Staffordshire unofficial

The level of interest that young British men and women are saddled with after university is outrageous - some of the figures that have been sent in recently are genuinely shocking. It's a scam. Young people are starting their working lives burdened with enormous debts, watching interest pile up even as they make repayments. The number just grows and grows and grows. A system designed by my generation that does nothing to serve hardworking, ambitious and talented British youngsters. Restore Britain will abolish tuition fees altogether for courses and training of national importance, ensuring we produce the doctors, engineers, dentists scientists and properly skilled workers our country desperately needs. And we will scrap ALL interest on student loans for British citizens living in Britain. Importantly - to help fund it all, we will ban foreign nationals from accessing our student loan system. The system should be helping young British men and women invest in their futures. That helps all of us - but the system is so self-absorbed, outdated and short-sighted it cannot see that. Education should not be a profit-making machine, placing that above all else. It’s about investing in the country’s future, even if those of us making the decisions aren’t around to see it.
