Its about time, instead of investing money on Sixth Formers and College students they could of invested it all in the universities system - for which quite a few would of benefited from. I don't see why people, should be paid to attend school. Its also unfair, as people who are not eligible for it - don't usually get paid £30pm by their parents.

Most people spent it on money to actually get to college, so bit of a shame there, but yeah peple who are actually determined to get an education will find someway of making money.
I myself dont get ema, and unlike people who say 'GOOD IT ALL WENT ON GAMES' i think it was somewhat of a good system but could of been fixed up a bit btw it's not like they're using that money to beat you up with so why get so angry.
Coffee isn't my cup of tea.
Speak for yourself. It cost me £15 to get to college and back every week (would have been twice as much if I didn't have a student bus pass, which also cost money to get) and studying media production we were required to consistently purchase equipment and such that was essential to the course.
atleast i can bunk my free's without worrying though
What the hell? I am going to college because I want an education, I'm saying I have to quit and get a full time job because I won't be able to afford rent and food on my part time salary without this £30 a week :/If you are going to school for £30 a week and not an education then I would say that's the best thing for you to do, as you obviously are not interested in school for an education - rather just for an easy sit off while pocketing £30 a week.
I myself recieve EMA as my Dad was unemployed at the time, must say - good riddance.
