Scottish universities are suffering because the number of foreign students has dropped dramatically since Brexit – with far fewer EU students. Foreign student numbers have also dropped because of the Home Office’s hostile policies, and not allowing graduates to stay here for work.
I really worry that our young people are having to continue to live with their parents. If they can afford a mortgage in their thirties they have very little disposable income, if any. Therefore they can’t afford to go out much, take holidays, have a car ….or consider having a family.
This is a totally lopsided society which is very unhealthy society with a lot of angry young people.
In England its even worse with young people having huge loans of nearly 100K they won’t be able pay off until their sixties.
Here in the UK – apart from the rich getting richer – we can now expect a worse standard of living than most other developed nations, even while we have top universities, huge resources. What going on? Money is being sucked down a London black hole. Why can't Scotland have self determination of its energy resources?
