University: who goes, who pays and does it change us?


Listen Later

The UK has seen a huge increase in the number of young people going to university in recent years. Rachel Wolf and Sir John Curtice examine who goes, how we should pay for it and whether having more graduates has changed us as a society. John also predicts the date of the next election.


Trendy is the must-listen show about key trends and forces shaping public opinion.
