The current provision of a "Home Student" of having to reside in the UK for the full three years before the first day of the academic year excludes those and their children that are British Citizens and have paid into the British tax system for years, but for whatever reason have moved abroad. All British citizens should be entitled to attend university in the UK and pay Home Student fees.
