POLITICIANS have never keep election promises. I am 60 years old and have seen parliaments come and go, but this Government is worse than Margaret Thatcher’s.

We should be helping those who are interested in going to university. The education of the next two generations is crucial to our country.

Potential student doctors and nurses will not be trained for lack of their money.

Nine thousand pounds is the maximum English tuition fee, which you repay, with interest, when you earn £21,000.

Americans have reported having to pay off loans up to the age of 40.

I agree with those students who are against the millionaires who do not pay their tax fairly, and that is why Top Shop should be deleted from everyone’s shopping.

I do not like violence and boycotting businesses like Top Shop is a better way for students to cut their profits.

Perhaps if you have an NUS card Top Shop should give you £1,000?

We need an injection of cash to assist the vulnerable.

Murderers have a warm cell, three meals a day, prison officers to care for them and therapy and recreation. Is this fair?

The CPS can now rely on proof of guilt through DNA forensic science, so why should killers live? If everything is to be cut, why do they remain uncut?

The time is right to reconsider why we need to keep these evil people alive, at a cost of billions to us.

I would not hang murderers but put them to sleep by injection. America does this, and we follow America in many ways. Prisons could then be renovated with the money saved, and turned into hotels or housing. This would also provide jobs.

Why should murderers live a good life and old people, the disabled, mentally ill, students, and users of libraries and the NHS suffer cuts?
