Brits Out

I read on the BBC News website this morning that the Northern Ireland Executive are shall we saying trying to table a motion to make it law that students from Britain will have to pay £9,000 to go to college at eith Queen's or University of Ulster.

Part of me agrees with fees - university isn't for everyone, but most people go because irts convenient and they dn't have a back up plan?!

If you are putting it up for one, then put it up for all. Last week I called the Prime Minister hypritical - well Northern Ireland Executive you are no different!

Are you discriminating against Britain because they are British? What about all this Unionist talk about being part of the United Kingdom and so on ........

The Republic have it the right way around. Don't impose fees on a first degree - get them in the door and then when they have graduated, then you charge the fees for the 2nd and 3rd degrees!

The world and their granny has a degree these days so its a given that people are going to get 2nd and 3rd degrees ......................... so publicise Northern Ireland by offering FREE undergraduate education, and the people coming will hopefully like it so much that they want to stay on and do further study in Northern Ireland!

Yeah yeah yeah there will be opposition to that because this will mean a drop in money and it will have to be found from elsewhere..

And that is the way it should be.

There is inefficencys in every departments budgets and this will help curb these! And this is exactly what we need to become a stronger economy.

So say NO to keeping the Brits Out!
