Sorry - does not. A close relative is a Met Office person - brought up
by abandoned mother with no spare cash, worked very hard supporting
herself to get her science degree, worked very hard in Met Office so
far. Offered broadcast role but, so far, has declined and stayed
backroom.

Plenty went through uni with no financial support from parents by working
evenings. weekends and holidays. These days you can get a student loan.

Bill is just quoting from the Mail - again.
