Oh god...there's five more years of the Connies doing stuff like this.
Yes, five freakin' stinkin',terrible, horrible, no good, very bad years under this tyranny.
In real terms, this *will* force a lot of young people's hands, to not going to university, which does not bode well for the country's prospects in the future. Bravo, Connies, bravo...there's nothing like providing little prospects in the present -- ie. by proclaiming a 'recovery' based on protecting tax evaders and employers to trample all over their workers by supporting the use of zero hours' contracts. In the coalition government they butchered education, but they are out doing themselves this time.
N.B. I may be fortunate that I have benefited from a maintenance grant while at university, but for a lot of people from a poorer background, it is a neccessary source of extra income. University costs are rising in real terms, and students are paying back more.
