When uni bosses are complaining about financial pressures it is deeply hypocritical of them to be swanning around in luxury limos. 80 per cent of the universities surveyed didn't spend anything on flash cars, so there's no excuse for the remaining 20 per cent.
In the last financial year £3.7 billion of public money was paid to English universities. Worse still the taxpayer could end up footing the bill for an estimated 47 per cent of student loans. It's time that higher education got a grip on waste at the top, cutting out the prestigious perks and finally putting the people who pay their salaries first. Students and taxpayers are fed up of poor value for money at UK universities.
