    Dudes + Dudettes,

    Tomorrow voting opens on the Israeli-Boytcott referendum.
    On Monday, voting opens for Sabbatical elections.

    Referendum details, SABB candidate manifestos and loads of other stuff that no one really cares about can be found here: http://vote.dsu.org.uk !

    Have fun with all the democracy going on!

    I voted Seva, and good effort btw but bad luck, dude.

    In other news, the attempt to involve itself in Israeli-Palestinian conflict confirms to me that the Union is embarassing itself with such efforts where it has patently taken itself too seriously.

    It is a ******* talking shop, guys.

    Yes - Seva came 2nd. Welch came last. Natalie Crisp got elected.

    Dudes, so I went to NUS Conference a couple of weeks ago. As part of your delegation, both parts of my report can be found here: http://neg-rep.blogspot.com/

    Edit: I get raged at some points.

    I really wish I'd read this blog last year; so much of it seems to reinforce the decision I made on the NUS referendum.
