Treat plan one and two student loan graduates more fairly with their repayments
At the recent Conservative Party Conference, Theresa May announced a policy which would see recent plan 2 graduates not have to start repaying their student loans until they earn more than £25,000, while plan 1 graduates will still be expected to make repayments thousands of pounds earlier.

Source quote:
"The change is likely to apply only to those graduates who took out the higher rate of student loans introduced in 2012, which perversely means that earlier graduates will have higher loan repayments even if they are on the same income level as later graduates with much higher debts."

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We're not sure exactly what you mean by "Treat plan one and two student loan graduates more fairly with their repayments".
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
