SNP look at re-entering student exchange program

[Sheepy]

The Turing scheme, I wonder who thought that one up.

Maybe the Celtic Fringe could stick together:

The Irish government will fund Erasmus+ grants for Northern Irish students so they can continue to participate in Europe's flagship student exchange program after the United Kingdom pulls out of the scheme.
Dublin agreed "to extend the benefits of Erasmus+ to students in Northern Ireland even after Brexit," the country's Minister for Higher Education Simon Harris told broadcaster RTÉ late on Saturday, adding that this was "a very practical example of us wanting to continue to collaborate with Northern Ireland post-Brexit."
Harris said it was a "permanent commitment" that would last as long as students wanted to make use of it. "The cost is relatively low ... But it's not a cost, it's an investment," he said, adding the estimated cost would be around €2 million per year.

Boris Johnson told reporters that Erasmus was "extremely expensive" and that "our arrangements mean the UK exchequer more or less loses out on the deal." He said the UK will launch a domestic replacement program instead called the Turing scheme.

Well I guess I should return a favour. Wait for it.

Is this not because University is free in Scotland... Unless you're a foreign student then you get whacked?
Or am I being cynical?

I am just saying we have been on the receiving end of some of those so-called student exchange schemes they aren't necessarily all they are cracked up to be. People in other countries have been known to cheat to get a foothold. Place people who aren't all they seem. But I am sure the Scottish security services are all over it like rash.

wihtout a doubt sheep , but its popular in scotland , and scottish parties all support it. When the majority are in favour , you have to go with it .

Instead the tories look stupid in scotland being overruled by londonshire.

Every political party in scotland favoured remaining in the erasmus scheme sheep. Even the tories....

Thats the trouble wae these westmisnter parties i nscotland sheep , the branch managers and boys on the ground , who know more about scotland and its politics than some english guy in westmisnter ever could , want to do one thing which chimes with the scot voter , then the bosses down in london overrule them cause it aint what england wants ,and they look like tits time and again.

Scotland needs independence , and so does the scottish right , its probably the best thing that could possibly happen to scottish tories.

Well old four eyes won't tell you, but there are elements who use the student exchange scheme for other means.

Erasmus+ is something which all parties agree must continue post Brexit. For other parties to grandstand against the UK Government is simply wrong. The young people in #Eastwood and across Scotland should know that we are fighting to ensure that Erasmus+ continues
