50% at university is great in theory, but saddling young people with decades worth of debt isn't. I too think that subsequent taxation should be how the bill gets paid. There should have been a lot more effort to get apprenticeships and similar working properly, so that people had an alternative. That has happened since I think. I am too old to know anymore :-D
Anyway, none of that matters because old Tory/Labour policies have been swept away and now it's just naked greed and corruption on one side and desperately trying not to be controversial on the other, all of it revolving around Brexit. It's anyone's guess how the next election will go.
I don't think Labour moving to the centre is a vote loser. It's the only way they have got themselves elected for the last 40 years. They'll gain more by staying in the centre, not mentioning the B word and mopping up disaffected tory voters.
