Reform UK said they’d “ban foreign students from student loans” and cut funding for “woke nonsense degrees”.
There’s just one problem: international students were never eligible for UK government student loans in the first place.
They’re paying £22,000/year and universities are already struggling after the last Tory visa restrictions.
And by “woke nonsense degrees”? They mean arts, humanities, English, history — the subjects that teach us to think, create and question.
This isn’t policy. It’s misinformation aimed at people they think are too “thick” to fact-check it.
The rise of anti-intellectualism in the UK is getting scary.
