      I’m sorry is this an I-love-getting-fucked-in-the-ass thing that I’m too Scottish to understand?

        Yes.

        See, Americans dont have an England to fuck over its citizens, so we have to do it all by ourselves.

            Whilst it would be lovely if us Englishmen didn’t have student loans, they could be a whole lot worse. We only pay them once we earn over a certain threshold, and they’ll disappear after 30 years. Plus our unis are funded in large part by international students (which has its own issues), so Brits’ course fees are slightly subsidised.

            Not good, but hey at least it’s not the US(!)
