How Soon is Now?

We are now two days away from voting opening and six days away from knowing who will be your Guild President for next year.  Campaigning kicked off this week and here is a quick recap.

This week I have carried out 32 lecture shout outs.  From Accounting and Finance to Zoology I have been out telling students why they should vote for me their number one choice next week. The lack of booing provides steady reassurance that I am saying something right.




I know these are a bit time consuming at the start of a lecture but thank you for listening and sticking with me whilst I have been doing them.

On top of this I have been constructing my campaign banners. The first one was taken after one day but has now been returned (thank you!) and you can find it up by the Riley Building.



I have been interviewed by The Tab on topics such as, who is my favourite celebrity? What sets me apart from other candidates? And my best joke.  In the mean time you can find 30 seconds on what I want to do if I am elected President this year:



Finally, I have been taking to social media to try and keep you updated with what I have been up to and why I want to be elected your President

Voting opens two days from now.  I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous.  Everyday I get to try to make conditions better for students and I can't think of a better job.

If you want a President with a track record of running successful campaigns.  If you want a President who will make the Guild's priorities, improved graduate employability, better housing conditions and the continuation of campaigns on mental health, teaching and learning and widening participation.  If you want a President who has experience of getting wins for students then vote James Coe #1 from Monday to Friday.
