We don't seem to get our fair share of mentions. Anyone want to start contacting the media and telling them about The Bank Action Group?

Surprisingly I would have thought this would have been picked up by Private Eye. As it hadn't, I sent them a brief outline and URL on Friday (17th)

 

When they do get their teeth into it you'll wish you had kept quiet...

Another altruistic thought: Elderly people will be a large group of people who get hit by these charges. By nature they don't complain, and also by nature they are not likely to have access to the internet and the resources/support offered by this group.

 

This news needs to get to them too (hey, everyone has a favourite granny or elderly aunt...) and I was thinking that a press campaign also needs to target organisations like the CAB and Help The Aged.

 

I'll look into these organisations over the next few days...

We have been in touch with the CAB and have received favourable replies. Also, the same from student unions etc...

 

The student unions need to be aware that there are some colleges/universities setting up tuition fee schemes with punative charges. And they're actually calling them penalties in the terms and conditions, tut tut.

 

See my thread on Buckinghamshire Chilterns university.

why is it that 'official bodies' are quick to follow other 'official bodies' when it comes to implementing bad decisions...but brass necked about implementing good decisions such as anything that benefits more than the chosen few...?

Also fired another missive off to Private Eye. The hook - imagine their shame if they were the last to pick up on this...
