This blog has been kindly written by Dr Diana Beech, Chief Executive Officer of London Higher, the representative body for more than 40 universities and higher education colleges across the capital. Diana was previously Policy Adviser to three successive Universities Ministers and is currently Vice-Chair of the Board of Governors at the University of Worcester. She writes here in a personal capacity, and you can follow Diana on Twitter @dianajbeech.

Shortly after stepping down as adviser to three former Universities Ministers, I penned a HEPI blog listing 10 crucial things that I felt any new Minister for Universities should know.

Two and a half years later, on re-reading that blog, I am struck by how much has changed, yet also how little has changed, given that each and every one of the 10 points I raised are still highly relevant today despite us being another two UK Prime Ministers on.
