...predict a looming staff crisis in higher education
Article Abstract:
An analysis of the future staffing crisis that faces the higher education sector. It is argued that a number of factors will contribute toward this crisis. They include the imminent retirement of the 1960s and 1970s generations of academics; the fact that under the Thatcher government, which covers the period of the 1980s, people were unable to begin a career in higher education so got jobs elsewhere; and the fact that the current crop of graduates will be leaving higher education with high levels of debt and will therefore be more likely to take up well paid jobs in the private sector than low paid and overworked positions in the public sector.

Only Islam will remain
Article Abstract:
While almost all British Muslims are loyal to the United Kingdom, they feel they must protest British involvement in the Afghanistan Conflict. Islamic extremism is rare in the United Kingdom and it is a good sign that people who have immigrated from Pakistan and other Islamic countries feel they can protest government actions.
