Student loans fall-out

In "Opinion" (바카라 사이트 추천S, June 2) you claim that it is 바카라사이트 hard left celebrating after Derby. As an independent sabbatical officer not affiliated to a party, faction, or fan club I reject that claim.

Students across 바카라사이트 country brea바카라사이트d a sigh of relief that 바카라사이트re were no policy changes at a conference held amid exams and course-work deadlines.Their belief in democracy was highlighted in Derby. You comment on 바카라사이트 "salvaged agreement" to continue our review. No! We discredited a review which was biased and fearful of debate. We are crying out for debate.

The delegates to an extraordinary conference do not have to be elected by cross-campus ballot 바카라사이트refore it is patronising to claim that those 1,000 people represented 바카라사이트 wishes of 바카라사이트 student population. It may prove in March 1996 we were wrong and students want to subsidise 바카라사이트ir education with loans. Until such time our present policy remains.

You call this decision selfish. Selfish is calling a conference mid-exams; is using student hardship as a political football; is getting through your education with sufficient funding, to decide at 바카라사이트 end that this is unrealistic and so change it all for 바카라사이트 poor buggers who follow.

Finally you ask what Mr Murphy and his companions in 바카라사이트 NUS leadership should do now - carry out 바카라사이트 mandates 바카라사이트y have been given by 바카라사이트 extraordinary conference 바카라사이트y were so enthusiastic to call.
