BBC's Victoria Derbyshire Tears Into Minister Over 'Outrageous' Student Loan Repayments

Victoria Derbyshire and Georgia Gould

Victoria Derbyshire tore into the school standards minister over the government’s “outrageous” approach to student loan repayments.

Labour unilaterally changed the terms of the student loans in the last Budget in November.

Chancellor Rachel Reeves froze the salary threshold at which graduates start to repay what they owe, meaning more of them are hit with charges earlier. 

Interviewing education minister Georgia Gould on BBC Newsnight, Derbyshire said the changes are “outrageous”.
