2023-07-17 10:30:29 UTC - MISINFORMED_OR_POTENTIALLY_MISLEADING
The suggestion that university education doesn't lead to higher income is misleading. Median earnings post-university is £27-29k, compared to £24-27k for apprenticeships. Lifetime earnings, after tax, are £100-130k higher for those who went to university.

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1680848669489209345
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
