Well it's official now. None of the students in my department are graduating this year, at least not when they're supposed to. First and second-years are also screwed; they can't progress to their next year.

This is going to explode in the news in early July when the results are announced. The unis are pleading being broke and there's no word of the gov't stepping in to either lift the tuition cap or raise the funding. I reckon this will be the next chapter in the Tory vs. "militant unions" story, and hopefully another nail in their coffin. Even better would be if they actually did something to help, but we all know how likely that is to happen.
