This has happened to girlfriends nephew in SA , because he failed to keep above 85% on his exams! , but they're not threatening to bloody well deport him

Yes but they have been caught accepting 'students' who can't speak english and who don't attend the courses. The genuine students will be helped find new sponsors whilst the illegal immigrants will rightly fully be deported.

I don't see the issue.

There's so many millions of them it hardly makes a dent.

During my years at Uni there was a huge influx on Chinese students. Very few could speak English.

Fair play to them as most of them did put the work in. Some of them in our maths modules were more fluent in mathematical formulae than they were in English. Bizzare...talk to them and it was just a blank face, but start writing down some algebra they had no problem solving it.

I think the main reason why they worked so hard was that if they were doing overseas study as a way to get out of doing military service with the PLA.

No Tony, there are not millions, your tone is now verging on hysteria!

Don't worry, they will get the best legal representation via legal aid and supported by the EU and all paid for by you and me.

Supported by the eu ? ....but they're forreners

But they should sue the government

I don't understand this. When I was at uni there would have been umpteen ways to identify if I was turning up for lectures. First port of call would have been my tutor who I saw on a fairly regular basis to talk about work and important personal concerns, like the exorbitant price of Newcastle Brown

And there were fairly regular exams. So have things at uni changed so much? Why couldn't they have just slung out the ones that didn't turn up?

Backdoor method for reducing total numbers , in a hurry

This isnt directed at unis that you or I would attend. Drive through anywhere in London, or the ****-end of Manchester (Longsight) and youll see endless private colleges.

These are used as a means to obtain student visas and most, if not all, would struggle to survive if education was their primary aim. None of their 'students' have a moral or legal right to be here, so Im happy to see them all deported, the 'colleges' closed and the c*nts who operate them bankrupted.

EU human rights laws that favour every supposed disadvantaged freeloader.

There is no such thing as the EU human rights law (or act for that matter)

The college has a vested interest in keeping numbers up for funding purposes, and the student is hardly likely to admit to not attending. Where would you get reliable data from?

Martin2005

We all have a vested interest in keeping the number of oversea students high, as it bankrolls our university system. Fewer foreign students means a bigger tax contribution by you and me!
