WES STREETING has said that he would not apologise for Labour moving away from a commitment to ditch university tuition fees.
The shadow health secretary said that the public finances are in too much of a “mess” but insisted Labour would still set out plans for a “fairer funding system.”
His comments came after Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer caused outrage among teaching and student unions after confirming he would “move on” from his commitment to abolish tuition fees.
