Candidate for the position of President
Experience, Commitment, Capability
So what is it that I believe qualifies me to be president?
I’ve been a member of the Democratic Procedures Committee for two years, working with students to hold SU officers to account. Through this I helped the SU entirely change the way it is run to an online model, making it more accessible to students through the Student Ideas section, something that I continue to work on.
I’ve also successfully campaigned for student ideas. I worked singlehandedly to get the idea of turning part of the old SU into Sleep Pod Bay passed, something which I am still working on to ensure that it gets done.
I’m working on the Bristol Cut the Rent UWE Campaign to pressure letting agencies and landlords to rent fairly, cut agency fees and sign the Ethical Lettings Charter, something that I will to continue fighting for.
If elected I would focus on the following:
If elected I will try to fulfil these policies, keep the promises of those which have been enacted, and fight for any new ones in any way I can. I’ve tried my best to make a difference to the lives of students around me through these efforts, but I know I can do more with the resources of the SU presidency behind me.
