UK’s science minister declares end to Tory ‘war on universities’
Peter Kyle, who applied to university three times, said Tory government’s ‘war’ on higher education was over
Britain’s future Nobel prizes will come from encouraging young people into university rather than making sandwiches in high street chains, according to the science secretary Peter Kyle, who declared that the previous government’s “war on universities” had ended.
