Many home students I spoke to weren’t interested in purpose built student housing past their first year. Shared terraced housing was much cheaper and often more convenient. This was almost a decade ago though. They thought the former suited overseas students more.

I struggle to understand why the Tories keep bringing up this sort of thing. It just reminds people of party gate rather than let it fade away. Mad.

From a bbc report this morning, it seems that they don’t have extensive recycling in place that would help. We have 3 week collections but supported by food, plastic, cans, glass, paper/cardboard and garden waste collections. Very difficult without. Could have misunderstood the report.
