Elections - thanks, congratulations and NUS Conference

I was unsure whether to post about the elections – but it’s only right for me to thank everyone who supported me, campaigned for me and voted for me during them. Also I must say a huge thank you to Hayley who was a brilliant opponent, fair and supportive. I think the closeness of the result shows that there were two strong candidates in that election.

I hope that I can follow on the legacy of strong Welfare provision that we have seen at RUSU.

Congratulations to all the other successful candidates; my successor and better Emily Beardsmore and Ryan who will join us in the RUSU nest and allow Education to soar next year.

Thanks to Elections Committee who saw through a difficult period (shame on those who received formal warnings) and a very close count night.

I’m still not happy about NUS Conference though.
