Nick Clegg braves ghosts of the past with election pledge to keep tuition fees
Decision to raise university fees to a maximum £9,000 a year provoked biggest crisis as
Lib Dem leader
Nick Clegg plans to fight the next election on a pledge to stick to the Coalition's controversial
decision to raise university tuition fees to a maximum £9,000 a year.
A Liberal Democrat policy paper, seen by The Independent, rejects calls by some of the party's
activists for fees to be cut to a maximum £6,000 a year or replaced by a graduate tax.
The report by a Lib Dem working group proposes that the £9,000 limit be retained but
reviewed by the next government.
The plan will be put to a vote at the Lib Dems' annual conference in Glasgow in September,
which has the final say on policy. It will be seen as a test of whether Mr Clegg can persuade
the Lib Dems to take the tough decisions facing a party of government.
