So the UK is basically subsidizing worthless degrees.

Yes, the UK has an obsession with pushing out more graduates, meanwhile we have to import trades people because demand isn't being met.
The Government is (pretending to) do something about this - we've had a huge increase in "apprenticeships", but a lot of those are just shops counting their shelf-stackers as apprentices because it means they don't have to pay the minimum wage.
