Student life
Three hundred students from across the country descended on Westminster yesterday to demand their MPs come clean on fees, forcing them to sign a pledge promising to vote against a rise in university top up fees and to press the Government to find a fairer alternative.
More than 60 MPs were summoned to the NUS rally in Parliament to sign the pledge and were given the opportunity to speak to the hundreds of students who had packed the committee room and corridors of power. Many had the chance to lobby their MP directly over fees and to demonstrate the anger and concerns of students and their families.
