Sometimes it's hard to believe what we read in the press. A story today tells us that 'most universities in England have bee forced to hand out emergency cash to students whose loans and grants have been severely delayed. This is according to a recent survey.
Yet, surely I was reading only earlier this week that the bosses at the Student Loans Company are to receive bonuses?
So I check back, and yes, apparently £2 million was handed out in bonuses to the staff there who've so totally stuffed up students' lives. Ten executives, indeed, are alleged to have received 5 figure sums.
Unbelievable. Aboslutely unbelievable. Who is it, do you think, who can square this kind of thing? Who OK's it?
And why isn't there an outcry? Why don't we British do 'anger' any more? That's what I can never understand. I gather the Lib Dems have made a fuss but why isn't this plastered over all our newspapers and broadcast news outlets? And have we just become too too accepting?
