Scottish students fees are paid by all taxes and it should be a concern about the dependence of revenues from non Scottish students. That's a rational economic argument and not in any way anti immigrant, or racist, imo.
BCram that argument is fine but it ignores every other Islay post in this thread, and also that he focuses on non-EU foreigners as a target. Read the whole thread and you'll surely see why.
