Nearly half of UK vice-chancellors expect their university to be in financial deficit this year following a drop in the number of lucrative international students.

Universities are cutting hundreds of teaching posts at the same time as creating 'woke' jobs with salaries that can reach £100,000, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.

Aston University in Birmingham, where 60 academics in the college of engineering and physical sciences are at risk of redundancy, has filled a £98,000-a-year post in 'People, Culture and Inclusion'. At Oxford Brookes , mathematics and music programmes are being cut as part of a bid to save £2 million while seeking an 'anti-harassment and EDI adviser' on £39,000.

Teaching assistants – who earn as little as £14,000 a year – are meant to be used only to plug short gaps when teachers are sick or have quit. But a survey of nearly 6,000 TAs in England and Wales by public service union Unison found 39 per cent are covering classes for at least five hours a week, and 15 per cent for at least 11 hours a week.

Advertisement Restructuring at Portsmouth University is likely to lead to the loss of 47 jobs, but a head of EDI was recently hired on a salary of up to £76,462. And while 'double-figure redundancies' of fixed-term contract staff have hit the history department at University College London, it has launched a search for a senior-level 'director of equality, inclusion and culture' on an undisclosed salary.

Recent research revealed the average university EDI team employs 11 people, and a Freedom of Information request by campaign group Alumni For Free Speech found that 47 universities spent £17.9 million a year on 515 dedicated staff.

The Conservatives are on course to win 155 seats – fewer than during the Labour victory under Sir Tony Blair. It marks a drop in the number of constituencies the party was projected to win in the same polling carried out in January, when the Tories were set to secure 169 seats. The drop in support indicates there has been no resurgence for the party since the Government’s tax giveaway budget. Meanwhile for Labour, the result is 18 seats higher than earlier in the year suggesting it is growing in popularity among voters.Chancellor Jeremy Hunt announced at the time that the government would be implementing a further two per cut to national insurance contributions (NIC), in what was widely seen as a pre-election sweetener to try to improve the party’s fortunes
