Reimburse all international students of this year’s fees due to Covid-19
International students pay for their school fees which is from £9000 and more. They have not been able to make good use of this money this year due to covid-19
International students are not entitled for UK government education funding. Most of them don’t get much help from their government back home because of corruption. Most international students depend on 20 hours jobs they do here and their parents money which is now difficult to get because most companies have closed down in UK and on their countries making acquiring income almost impossible
