Except the system does not work! 45% default rate and increasing, costly to administer actually reaching a point where the cost is more than a means tested grant system.

Bit like the privatised railways where public subsidy is now nearly double at at 5.4 billion per year and fares are 110% higher! Got love these Tories they know how to pour tax payers money down the wallets of their rich friends!
