Stop the International Student Levy

The government has just announced a tax on international student fees that would see them go up by another £925.   International students already pay hundreds of thousands of pounds to study in the UK, only to be confronted with a crumbling education system, anti-migrant rhetoric, and hostile environment policies. There is no justification to raise these costs more.   Help us fight the international student levy. Sign the petition now.
