Scare stories from LSC

Easter brings the conference season and the end of the Government Financial Year together so suddenly we see lots reports and press activity which all seem to be bringing forward scare stories such as

LSC promises things it then can't deliver
Diplomas dropped because the LSC has run out of money
No space or money for sixth formers

I think that at the moment, I'm treating all these things as scare stories.  Many are forced on us because the LSC has to do something by 31st March when in reality it is nowhere near having the numbers on which to base things.Or the Government announcing 50,000 students on diplomas when clearly that's just an estimate.  

Lets just wait a week or two and see what happens after the next bank holiday in May before jumping to conclusions.
