DfE keeps EU student paper secret ‘to avoid affecting’ trade talks

£40M? OK, but which Universities will that affect, the 'rich' Oxbridge set, middling Russell group members, or the allegedly poorer post 92 Uni's? For those that have put too many eggs in the overseas student basket, with the effects of Covid-19 as well, it might be too much, the warning signs were there years ago, long before Brexit, reliance on overseas student income was foolhardy at best. Prepare for mergers, and asset strippers, we do indeed live in interesting times. Oh and I support the Governments stance in not giving away any advantage to the E.U. by releasing the information, for Brexit to work the UK has to be as hard with the E.U. as the E.U. has tried to be with the UK.
