And I'm doing some teaching.
Alan RusbridgerGUEST
I went to the London Met University, which is not one of the most fashionable universities, because when I was in Oxford, I taught the foundation year that we created there.

And actually, teaching people from unconventional backgrounds, I find highly rewarding.
Alan RusbridgerGUEST
And I do a bit of grandfathering, so I'm busy.
Jack GroveGUEST
Well, we don't know exactly why that happened, but it is quite a significant move.
Jack GroveGUEST
I've been at the Times Higher quite a long time, and I can remember in 2012 when London Met lost their visa license and that was a massive story and since then only a couple of universities have lost their their license and London Met had got it back within a couple of years and it's doing quite good numbers now I remember for London Met that had a really massive impact on them.
Jack GroveGUEST
And it took them a couple of, you know, it took five years or something to really to get back into their stride.
Jack GroveGUEST
And it's such a huge loss of income for many, you know, for many universities, it represents a huge loss of income.
