The Prime Minister has promised to replace the worst-performing university courses with 100,000 more apprenticeships.
Rishi Sunak has pledged to create 100,000 more apprenticeships a year by shutting down “rip-off degrees” as he battles to remain in No 10.
The party is warning that the treatment backlog, which currently stands at 7.54 million, could rise to 10 million if the Conservatives are in office for another five years. The Labour leader continued to refuse to say whether the veteran MP for Hackney North and Stoke Newington would be allowed to stand under his party’s banner on July 4.
But Greater Manchester Police and Stockport Council both confirmed they would take no further action against the Ashton-under-Lyne MP. The law would be changed to give England’s universities watchdog new powers to shut down courses deemed as underperforming.
