A Labour MP who is among the millions of graduates saddled with soaring student debt has joined a growing chorus of senior figures within the party who are piling pressure on Sir Keir Starmer to reform the “absolutely broken” system.
Labour MP Chris Hinchliff said he had no prospect of paying “anything more than the interest” on his loan before he became an MP and is now in £50,000 worth of debt, £10,000 more than he owed at the time he graduated in 2015.
