Top Up Fees Are Good/Bad (delete as applicable)

Today the LibDems in the Scottish Parliamant voted to introduce Top Up Fees in Scottish universities. The Debate was led by the Leader of the Lib Dems in Scotland, Nicol Stephen (below) . See the smug grin? That's how you can spot them.

Just the right time, you would think, for Sarah Teather MP to put out a press release from teh Liberal Democrats saying:

"Today’s twenty- somethings face serious financial problems because of student debt that their parents never encountered. It’s a real worry that debt levels are so huge even before higher fees kick in.

"This should be a timely reminder to politicians who glibly talk about lifing the cap on fees that their policies have serious long term implications for a whole generation’s financial security."

Quite.
