Local students need postal votes to say "NO" to top up fees
20 Jun 2004
Many students at Leicester's universities look set to miss out on voting against Labour's top up fees as a result of the timing of the Leicester South by-election.
The Liberal Democrats, who are opposed to Labour's top up fees plans, have set up a link from their website at www.leicester-libdems.org.uk to allow people to register on line for a postal vote. However, as the by-election is likely to be called very quickly the Lib Dems have pointed out that students shouldn't delay in registering for their postal vote.
