Ridiculous degree of no use? I assume you say that because your view of uni education is no doubt based upon commonly held stereotypes and misconceptions, simply because (presumably) you never achieved the grades to gain entry and experience it for yourself.
Sounds like sour grapes to me.
Anyhow, you missed the point in that in this country, the tax burden is already near insurmountable and to add on £9K debt on top is too much.
This country needs to invest in education, and if we don't we'll continue to fall further behind.

I believe the kids of today would say "epic fail".... 
I actually agree that we need to invest in education (Higher and other), but we also need to have a rational conversation about the funding, not just reiterate polemical rants.....
