The White Paper - an initial reaction

I'm spending this morning on the line-by-line analysis of the White Paper for my employer that I can't really post here, although I'll put up some edited highlights.

But before getting lost in the line-by-line stuff, I think its important to note that this White Paper is a complete rejection of deregulation and market-based competition in UK Higher Education. I wouldn't call it an 'unprecedented' extension of central planning, (a) because that would be melodramatic and (b) because there are actually a number of precedents, but I think 'significant' would be a suitable word.

More later
