The #FinancialTimes has an article (maybe paywalled https://www.ft.com/content/563f9820-d9a6-4e97-99e6-9e6c97919ca3?accessToken=zwAAAZQocctUkc9WP5gg2aZOl9OZ5p5sl5Gcow.MEYCIQDXPTbt5NDelJFRlZYg5uGea6xZEN_u8-64-L44dJDoGAIhAPcO2cUCkN13kXUOrkrvoz3X_Gw0M9dv4earyldduUgU&segmentId=e95a9ae7-622c-6235-5f87-51e412b47e97&shareType=enterprise&shareId=ccf3a34d-0749-411e-9fa6-b1d0cc468196)
about how STEM degree places are declining in UK Universities, with several Chemistry departments under threat. One is Hull which pioneered research into chemicals used in LCDs.
Odd, as exactly the same was happening 20-odd years ago (the degree course my cousin was taking at the time was threatened): https://publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200405/cmselect/cmsctech/220/22007.htm
Even earlier, my father had been on a UGC panel which closed the Physics course at UEA.
