L00b Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Looks like the UK taxpayer is left with another EU bill, 'Missing' EU graduates owe £89m in loans: More than 12,000 students have disappeared abroad after taking a degree at a British university There's your problem below, and I can tell that, as usual, no commercial/private sector type had any input about the SLC's T&Cs:Those moving abroad are expected to make payments voluntarily by providing details of their address and employment to the UK government. Interesting how those 12,000 are brought up as a Brexit argument, and yet represent less than a third of the defaulting overseas students. Better not mention the 27,000-odd non-EU students, eh?

I1L2T3 Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Isn't it the case that the EU and Britain's membership of it is good from a left leaning perspective because it is a way of circumventing democracy in this country? The EU forces all sorts of "progressive" policies on member states, including Britain, and there's little we can do about it as we are always outvoted in the QMV system. Am I right or am I right? Wrong. Being left meaning doesn't mean anti-democratic, any more than being right leaning does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retep Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Their agenda relates to Brexit though doesn't it? ---------- Post added 24-05-2016 at 19:47 ---------- How much in congestion charges does the US government owe London? What else have you got? Around £10 million which costs the taxpayer nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better not mention the 27,000-odd non-EU students, eh? Haha. I love how people can drop a link to the Daily Fail website and then just go off like they won the argument. 'Yo it said so in the Mail'.... and then they pimp away. They turn, 'yes the Daily Mail, I believe them and I also believe there is a conspiracy to silence the Out campaign! Farage said so in one of his nationally printed newspaper columns or maybe it was on Question Time, how he is never allowed to express his opinions! And then they just just pimp away.... ---------- Post added 24-05-2016 at 20:04 ---------- Around £10 million which costs the taxpayer nothing. £10m then. In lost revenue.
