University heads are warning a no-deal Brexit is "one of the biggest threats" the institutions have ever faced. Higher education leaders have written to MPs to say it is "no exaggeration" to warn that it would take universities "decades to recover". They say it would undermine scientific research and threaten universities' £21bn contribution to the UK economy. (as reported by the BBC today).
How wet can people get! The University heads should focus on educating British students. They are more concerned about their pay packets that are inflated by vast numbers foreign students, in effect pricing British students out. As for research, we would eventually do much better to be independent, and not reliant on foreign academics or foreign investment. A NO DEAL BREXIT is not a big threat but salvation for this country.
