The core trilma here remains the same - the govt needs to accept one of three things: high student migration, higher domestic student fees (or higher taxes to fund universities) or university bankruptcies. Those are the only options, given where we are. Pick one.

RIP Denis Law, patron saint of anyone who’s not feeling great and isn’t being believed.
Sadly, Law was absent that momentous evening when United won the European Cup for the first time at Wembley in 1968, hospitalised by a knee problem that some said was partly psychosomatic. Three days before the match a surgeon extracted a loose piece of cartilage almost an inch long. Law kept the gristle in a jar, on which he wrote, “They said this was in my head.”
