So today is the great Education Vote in the House of Commons. We get to hear of student tuition fees will increase.

To help the Liberal Democrats in their pondering…

Manifesto Pledge – Page 5 – “Don’t settle for low politics and broken promises, be more demanding…”

Manifesto, Page 8 – “… we need to be clear and honest…”

Manifesto Pledge page 39 – “Scrap unfair university tuition fees for all students taking their first degrees..”

Manifesto – page 96 – … we must be honest with people ..”

Derek Deedman – web page and the Pledge. – “There is one thing that sets the Liberal Democrats apart from other political parties; this is that when we say we will do something during election campaigns we then do it in government.”

Oh dear.

It seems that Mr Clegg and his sidekick Vince Cable have told the National Union of Students that they needn’t really worry as Students won’t really have to pay it all back – because the payment doesn’t hit home until you earn £121,000 and after 30 years you don’t have to pay any more anyway.

So, I am just wondering where the honesty is in this. We are lending students the money but telling them with a wink that they should just ignore it?

As I have suspected for a long time don’t believe what you read in Manifesto’s. And I may just buy the book….
