Tories demand Andy Burnham cap student loan interest at inflation

Kemi Badenoch outlined the policy in February, aiming to save graduates thousands of pounds. The party also wants to scrap university courses that leave students with debt and no job prospects, reinvesting the money into apprenticeships.
