The Higher Education Policy Institute (Hepi) says high fees might put off foreign students, who bring economic benefits to the country.

Er, no, they study here, get their degree and feck off elsewhere.

This is because students pay fees and spend money on food and rent. Once they have graduated, they might work in the UK and pay taxes here, the report says.

...or might not.

We already have thousands of foreigners that can’t even speak the language of the country they choose to reside in FFS, how about educating them for a start?

... as suggested in a think tank report that has been shrugged off by a government minister.

Has everyone conviniantly missed

International students from non-EU countries pay at least £3.3bn a year on tuition fees and living expenses

Thats quite a lot of dough.

I know quite a few international students, there are some colleges which charge up to £10,000 a term (for gcses/a levels).

I think as semi educated people, some people here need to get off the whole "too many bloody foreigners" in the UK and open their eyes to the bigger picture.

We don't mind Johny foreigner coming here and spending money, we just want him to go home afterwards.
It's simple mathematics.
Ie. how many people can you cram into a mini and still be expected to drive it safely and economically
