Without research there is no progress. Universities are already struggling enough as it is. Dont take more away from them.
short term savings for long term damage. do better.
our future scientists need support not cuts. so tired of this govt ignoring the people who actually build our future.
Ridiculous plan. Invest in knowledge!!!!
How are we supposed to innovate if you cut the budget every single year? This is incredibly short sighted.
