John Redwood raises speculation that the government could permit a significantly discounted fee for EU students attending UK universities.
He questions how universities would compensate for the resulting big loss of revenue, should this policy be implemented.
Redwood recently noted the Office for Budget Responsibility's decision to lower its UK GDP growth forecast to 1.1% for 2026 after changes to Labour tax policy, projecting higher unemployment as well. In a separate commentary, he advised the UK prime minister to avoid financial practices he says were missteps under Gordon Brown, including gold sales and EU-related decisions. Full coverage can be found in Redwood's analysis on the OBR's revised outlook and his discussion of government financial strategy.
