Westminster Watch – Is it worth going to university in the UK?

Britain's universities - led by iconic duo Oxford and Cambridge - are, to many, a source of national pride and international renown. But politicians wanting to reduce the number of international students, the salary gap between graduates and non-graduates narrowing and rising tuition and accommodation costs could spell trouble for Britain's higher education institutions. Nick is joined by Former Minister for Skills, Apprenticeships and Higher Education Robert Halfon, Policy Manager at the Higher Education Policy Institute Josh Freeman and Co-Chair of the London School of Economics’ Labour Society Maxim Murashov to discuss: is it worth going to university in the UK? Westminster Watch is broadcast out of London and presented by politician-turned-presenter Nick de Bois. From fierce debate to reflective thinking, Nick offers you the inside track on all the happenings inside the corridors of power in Westminster.
