London, 04/11/2015. Thousands of students marched in central London protesting against the British Government plans to cut grants for university students. The demonstration was patrolled by a heavy police present and clashes happened outside the Department of Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS). From the organisers Facebook page: <<From scrapping Maintenance Grants, planning to raise tuition fees, slashing support for disabled students and making brutal funding cuts to Adult & Further Education; to keeping thousands of people locked up in detention centres and deporting international students to their deaths: the Conservative Government is attacking us from all sides, and it's time to fight back. We don't just want a return to small grants that are barely enough to pay rent; we want living grants for all, so that no student has to live in poverty, and a system of support which means there are no barriers to the education system.[…]>>.
