I don't favourite anything as much as I used to. But I still think that what is in this section is amazing artwork. Check it out. ^^

Watchers

So as it turns there's a law they're probably going to be passing here soon in England by which University Tuition Fees (money we pay the government for an education that they say is near essential to have) will be almost completely unrestrained and decided by each university in turn. If passed, this will make the better universities (eg. Oxford, Cambridge) nigh-inaccessable for people like myself. The Government has promised to try and help working class students and put restraints on upper class students to stop them from paying the entire fee off in one go (and in doing so paying less overall (goddamn interest)), but they are promising nothing for the middle class, which I happen to be part of. And considering the government is also withdrawing university subsidies (which universities like Oxford needed) its just going to end up that tuition fees will be impossibly high.

This, of course, comes with all the cuts that the new Coalition have instated, which according to the Institute of Fiscal Studies will probably hit the poor hardest. Suprise fucking suprise. It staggers me that people in this country are shocked that, in electing a majority-Conservative government, they've effectively made life harder for the poor. Throughout the entire election, you had the majority of the country saying "Well, Labour has become completely unelectable. You know what? I'll vote for the Tories! This David Cameron fella seems a nice chap, looks like he represents a change. And the Tories have always represented change, haven't they? Haven't they?"
Why is it that when it comes to politics this country seems to lose all intelligence? What ever happened to the Great British cynicism and suspicion? Things are getting bad enough that I'm actually starting to support Labour again. That hasn't happened for a decade.
