<p><br /> Nick Clegg has urged students to call off planned demonstrations over tuition fee rises - telling them the Government's policy would benefit less-well-off youngsters.<br /> </p><p><br /> The Deputy Prime Minister suggested they should instead be protesting about the "scandalously" high proportion of pupils from the schools he and David Cameron attended getting places at Oxbridge.<br /> </p><p><br /> A fresh wave of protests against increases in university tuition fees will be held tomorrow, with a series of occupations, rallies and marches by student activists.<br /> </p><p><br /> The Liberal Democrats have been at the centre of the storm after ditching a General Election pledge to oppose fee rises - and eventually abolish them - as part of the coalition deal.<br /> </p><p><br /> A delegation of students is to deliver a letter to the Lib Dem leader as part of the protests, which says "no amount of twisted reasoning" can hide the fact the party lied to young voters.<br /> </p><p><br /> "We call on you to withdraw Lib Dem support for Conservative cuts to our education system, or face the disappointment and anger of a generation that has been betrayed," it says.<br /> </p><p><br /> But Mr Clegg used a high-profile speech to insist he would defend the policy and told the students to "listen and look before you march and shout".<br /> </p>
