Bongs are mad that they went through university just to make £7.50 an hour, find blame in everyone except those responsible
You have to make minimum wage a billion pounds an hour!!!!
NO NOT LIKE THAT
Graduate salaries are lower today in real terms than in 2001 and are heading towards parity with the national minimum wage, according to a report published this week.
Graduates don't make any money. How could this have happened?

I should be rewarded (by the taxpayer) for throwing my life away on a worthless PhD

wowowowowo you mean our blairite policy of handing a degree to the entire third world had some unintended consequences? 
The good news is that these people will have jobs feeding worms at the bottom of a shallow ditch soon inshallah 
When I graduated with a degree in Graphic Design in 2011 my starting wage was £13,500
brother nah Batman couldn't have got this out of me

Is this a wake-up call? Are bongs going to do anything about this? Are bongs going to change their economic outlook and realize that maybe giving everyone free stuff isn't a good idea? Are bongs going to stop stifling innovation so they no longer continue to be the place where rich people who got their money illegally dump their money so they can actually have good economic prospects?
No, because that would mean admitting Thatcher was right.

Wages are shit in the UK
They actually were equal to America pre 2007 because the dollar was 2 to a pound, but wages stayed roughly the same through inflation over the next 15 years and pound going to like 1.2 to dollar
When a London wage was equal to a new York wage AND healthcare etc was free, things were pretty good
Having said all of that, these specifics are not well paid degrees done by anyone with a viable career in mind. Bit like American gender studies students ending up in Starbucks

I remember a twittard bong discussion about free college. The British leftoid said that college should be free and available regardless of the value of his bachelor or salary prospects because everyone should have the right to the "college experience"

Dont bongs also pay out the butt for school like we do? How are they r-slurred enough to get psych degrees with the income potential over there?

Yes and no.
It's £9,250 per year, but it's paid for upfront by Student Finance England on very favourable repayment terms, which includes writing the debt off completely after 20 years.
This basically means the universities have a blank check from the government, who in turn guarantees footfall through student visas.
This has led to the senior leadership of every uni from Cambridge to Bumfrick Greybuildings Sheffield to pay themselves unbelievable salaries
at the expense of the taxpayer. It's an outright scam to which the bong teenager has no choice but to sign up because not having a degree guarantees you a life as a 
poorcel (although having a degree also does).

On paper they are charged extra, but they can have the full amount forgiven if they quit in the first year and get a job delivering burgers on a bicycle. So, yes.

it's not really favourable as it can be changed at any time later lol, the rules on the repayments have been changed multiple times already
it is theorized some future gov will likely decide to never wipe it off

The lowest are below minimum wage, often in roles that pretend it's not a salary, e.g. PhD stipends are now substantially below minimum wage.:

When I did mine the stipend paid me £1300 per month (which was tax exempt). I worked well beyond 37.5 hours, as does everyone in academia, in fact including all academic activity expected of me (writing, supervising students, reading papers):
