I feel like we're at a stage where any net advances the Tories make will be counteracted by the fact those won't get to most people, and that some people will suffer very, very heavily. We're walking into a disaster for civil liberties too; I'd be surprised if Net neutrality survives to 2020, the Human Rights Act is pretty much dead in the water already, etc.
Though I guess in this case, even disregarding all that, I can take the (unusual for me) position of arguing from self-interest. The humanities are an extremely soft target for cutbacks and the government has set itself cutting targets that will be almost impossible to meet, and I've not got a primary skillset that is likely to work well in much of the private sector. Of course I've got some fallback skills, but given the current state of the creative industries it's a total jackal-fight to be able to make any money from it. Very likely to hit the rest of my family too, we're all academics and thus all indirectly funded by the state.
