Lib Dems Fight New Tuition Fees

Tuition Fees Demo
Lib Dems Marching Against Student Debt

The Labour Government has once again broken its promises to young people and universities.

Under new Government plans, students will soon have to pay a huge £3000 a year in fees to attend university. Many students could soon be leaving university with debts of over £20,000.

Peter Carroll said, "Under Labour it looks like university will become for the rich, rather than the talented. Huge fees and large debts will inevitably stop students from ordinary families from going to university."

Lib Dems Fight Charges

The Lib Dems have been campaigning against the introduction of top up fees and for the abolition of tuition fees for many years. They have now pledged to step up their campaign across the country.

Peter said, "This will have a huge impact on the lives of young people and our country. Where is the next generation of doctors and teachers going to come from if thousands of young people can no longer afford to attend university?"

Sign The Petition

Liberal Democrats are now writing to nearly two thousand young people across Shepway urging them to sign a petition against these unjust fees. To find out more about the petition, please contact your local Lib Dems.
