Proceeding contribution from David Lammy (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 16 March 2010. It occurred during Opposition day on Higher Education.


Higher Education

Yes—it is the hon. Member for Havant who apparently has two brains, and he adopted that new phrase. Before even taking power, he began to reform modern universities to such an extent that he abolished them. That is an indication of what they can expect. The hon. Gentleman must explain properly to the House how he would fund that proposal—[Interruption.] He says from a sedentary position that he has explained it, but he has not—or he has explained it badly. The universities do not understand it and students do not understand it, either in this country or in Australia. Apparently, the only person who understands it is him.
