Student Loans Under Fire | Liverpool News

from Liverpool News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

The UK Treasury Select Committee is sounding the alarm over student loans, calling it a “stealth tax” as frozen repayment thresholds quietly cost graduates millions more. MPs accuse the government of hiding key changes in fine print, exploiting political convenience at the expense of fairness. With over 52,000 public complaints, the committee demands reforms: unfreeze the repayment threshold, shift the cost of university more equitably, and use a gentler inflation measure for interest rates — signaling a generational reckoning for student finance.
