Augar review: call for £7.5K fee cap but loan access bar deferred

The government cannot be trusted to make up any shortfall in university income, and it certainly cannot be permitted any say in how universities are run - look how they have wrecked education through continuous interference and ignorant micro-management. The numbers don't make sense either. The loan for fees might be a little lower, but the lower threshold for payback and extending the term from 30 to 40 years means that students will be lumbered with larger repayments for longer. Maybe universities should get together and set up their own 'student loan company' only get it right this time.
