London, UK. 25th January 2017. Movement for Justice and NUS London protesters walk through Bedford Square on the way to the LSE and Kings College to continue their protest calling for justice for overseas students. After a TV programme showed fraud at just two centres administering the compulsory English Language test for student visas, the Home Office paid ETS to investigate every single student who had taken the test at any centre and identify any who cheated. ETS used unproven biometric voice identification software which they say showed large numbers of students had cheated and more might have done so, and the certificates of both groups, over 55, 000 students, have been revoked, labelling them as international criminals. Many have already been detained and deported in mid-course without any chance to appeal while in the UK. A court decision has held the evidence insufficient to discharge the legal burden of proof but the persecution continues and as well as unjustly devastating the lives of students is disastrous to the reputation and finances of UK higher education.
