This news comes in the light of a recent decision by Oxbridge colleges to raise Tuition Fees to the maximum allowable amount of up to £9,000 per academic year, meaning that anyone from a less affluent background is unlikely to be able to study at these institutions, effectively setting the clock back to the nineteenth century, when only those whom were rich could get an education.

It's also worth considering that Cambridge University is one of the richest of them all in the UK, with an annual turnover of up to £1 billion per year, and yet the VC cannot find it in his heart to fork out a bit of these profits to support future generations of his own potential customers.

Instead it would seem on the face of it, he would rather pursue privately generated research based profits (sponsors include Microsoft and Rolls Royce), at the expense of the very people that this institution is supposed to serve - the students.

This also comes at a time when many Comprehensive schools are either considering or are already 'opting out' to become privately run Academies, so even at secondary school stage there is no escape from the capitalists' clutches.

Chesterton Community College, also in Cambridge, is currently one of those for which the Academy route is currently being considered.

It would seem that a Tsunami is afflicting us right here in the UK, one which is destroying our education system from the inside out...


A TSUNAMI OF SELFISHNESS AND GREED.
