PM could be ejected from Downing Street if Welsh Labour loses Senedd elections in May, First Minister says
THE cap on university tuition fees was effectively abolished yesterday by George Osborne, paving the way for another huge rise.

He said: “We’ll link the student fee cap to inflation for those institutions that can show they offer high-quality teaching.”
