Raise the student maintenance loan in Cambridge to match the London living costs

What the petition asks
Living costs in Cambridge have considerably increased in the past 3 years. Yet, the loans given to students do not reflect this increase in the same way as they do for London students. The average rent for student accommodation in Cambridge is so high that currently loans do not cover the majority.
