This month it’ll be a whole year since I was elected as President of @CardiffUniCons! Rather apt occasion to check out what we’ve achieved thus far! ⬇️ https://twitter.com/jameswallice/status/1118529780830359553
🔵 Our memberships absolutely rocketed to well over 50 students on campus. We’ve become a genuine fighting force holding our University & SU to account! 🔵
🔵 We’ve continuously protected the rights of students on campus, especially when the SU & University have got things wrong. Our universities should be places of debate. That means all voices should be heard. 🔵
🔵 We’ve gained the attention of national media who covered the disgraceful comments made by senior lecturers at Cardiff University - We’ll continue to scrutinise our institution & make sure it’s inclusive to all! 🔵
🔵 We’ve fought to make sure your education is protected! Continuously pushed @CardiffUni & @CardiffUCU to reach an agreement ASAP so all strike action can end! 🔵
🔵 We’ve worked with the @WelshConserv in the Senedd to ensure the concerns of students are heard! Here’s a video of @AndrewRTDavies raising our strike action concerns with the Welsh Govt! 🔵
🔵 Successfully launched a petition to trigger an EGM of @cardiffstudents to discuss the UCU strike action. It’s vital students have a voice in the dispute! 🔵
🔵 After we smashed the petition, I worked with @WelfareCSU to put forward a motion that saw the interests of every student at Cardiff protected - We’re still fighting you're corner, watch this space! 🔵
🔵 We’ve welcomed some fantastic speakers to the University, including @PaulDaviesPembs Leader of the @WelshConserv in the Senedd - We’re ready to take the fight to Labour in 2021! 🔵
🔵 We fought tooth & nail to get @Mohamed_Y_Ali elected last year. Unfortunately it wasn’t his time, but we should be so proud of the team we built. 25+ students out on polling day! 🔵
🔵 We’ve supported an ever growing @CardiffUniCons by scaling up our Exec team to make sure every wing of the party is represented. We’ve got elections coming up! Look out for details! 🔵
🔵 We’re working with our fab AMs down in the Senedd to establish a @W2WWales @CardiffUniCons programme. Huge thanks to @suzydaviesam @JFinchSaunders & @AngelaJBurns for being a fab bunch of role models for our young women! 🔵
🔵 We’ve successfully fought for conservative voices on @cardiffstudents’ senate for the first time ever! @MarshallGradyT & @Luke_Doherty19 are doing a great job fighting for conservative students on campus! 🔵
🔵 Against the odds we've gone from being an affiliated society to a gold tier society in the space of 7 months. A huge achievement & a testament to the hard work put in by our members! Huge thanks to @SocietiesCSU for helping us along the way! 🔵
🔵 And lastly I want to say a huge thank you to our members. @CardiffUniCons wouldn’t have been the success it was without them. A huge amount of gratitude is owed for the hours they’ve put in - never dreamed we’d achieve so much in such a short space of time. Thank you! 🔵
