Despite how jaded I have become by the democratic processes of the union I have actually ended up engaging with one of them.
With the referendum coming up today was the deadline for submitting motions and so I have proposed one, seconded by Kieran in an attempt to solve the problems with The Old Bar.
We have another week to submit amendments before things start moving forward. After that it goes to Union Council, who will probably reject it, then we can attempt to force it through with a petition if we wish.
Revive The Old Bar
This Union notes…
- LUU has over 30,000 members
- LUU’s membership is wide and diverse
- LUU provides a number of bars in order to cater for the social needs of it’s members
This Union believes…
- LUU should provide for the social needs of all it’s members
- Many of LUU’s members enjoy a quiet drink in a relaxed atmosphere
- The Old Bar has now become synonymous with The Terrace in providing a noisier atmosphere
This Union resolves…
- To reduce noise levels from music and plasma screens in The Old Bar
- To encourage sound from the plasma screens in The Old Bar to be turned off whenever possible
Now I just need to figure out how this works into my overall plan for world domination.
