“its creepy when I look up and see its red eyes looking at me. It feels like a monster is looking at me in the night”.

Rachel Reeves: "It is not right that people who don't go to university bear the cost for others to." I don't use local leisure centres and I don't drive, so will I be made exempt for taxation that pays for all that stuff? Or is it only education we'll be going after
