Is going to Oxbridge really a problem?

59% of the Cabinet went to either Oxford or Cambridge compared to less than 1% of the population which has been called ‘dramatically elitist’.

But Oxford and Cambridge are two of the best universities on the planet. They accept people of all backgrounds and cost exactly the same as any other university.

The only condition? Having good enough grades to get in.
