Currently looking at universities for my eldest son for next year and so far all the universities we've visited will be charging the maximum £9,000 a year tuition fee for all their courses. Now I knew that tuition fees had been abolished in Scotland for Scottish residents, but what I didn't realise was that tuition fees had also been abolished in Scotland for all EU residents with the exception of the English who will still have to pay the full amount. Now this does seem somewhat discriminatory to me especially since English taxes are helping to pay for Scottish universities. Its not the fault of the Scottish system though as it seems there's some quirk of EU legislation which introduces this English discrimination, not to mention the criminality of the UK system which has resulted in English universities tripling their tuition fees from one year to the next.
I think I shall be writing a little letter to my MP to tell him just how cross I am.
