Campaigning against tuition fees at Liverpool Hope uni

On 8 November, Liverpool Socialist Students organised a campaign stall at Liverpool Hope University as part of the national Funding Not Fees campaign against the Labour government’s recent increase in tuition fees.

Our message clearly resonated with a lot of people, as we got an excellent reception. Students and staff alike took great interest in our stall, with many people signing petitions and taking leaflets. Multiple people also expressed interest in starting a Socialist Students society at the university – so we have organised the first meeting for next week! A brilliant stall all round, and inspires great hope for the future.

I wasn’t sure what to expect from my first campaign stall but we had lots of interest! Clearly there’s an appetite for the Funding Not Fees campaign on campus, and I’m looking forward to organising more campaigning in the future.
