Re: Union Board Elections 2006 - UPDATED 26/4
I know I do. And there are heaps of other Clubs and Societies that run counter to my beliefs that get funding.
I'm interested to hear what you (and the other candidates) have to say to this.
And whilst you may find the fact that Jo sounds a lot like you offensive, I find it very amusing actually.
Out of curiousity, do you find the fact that Hillsong gets funding disturbing?Phanatical said:There are a couple points I want to address. Firstly, the issue of the UNION supporting Falun Gong. It's true that sometimes I get confused on the Union and the SRC, and I will sometimes attribute the acts of one to the other. But in the case of Falun Gong, the Union is just as guilty as the SRC. It disturbs me greatly to know that while societies like the Sydney Eclectic Composers' Society can no longer access Union funding whatsoever, "societies" like Falun 'Dafa' on campus can, and Do receive student funding through the Clubs and Societies program.
Secondly, I find the allegation that I force feed Jo her campaign materials offensive. I can run my own campaign, and I do not need a puppet to do it for me. As for Jo, she's more than capable, she's got her own ideas and approaches, her own priorities and - most importantly - the determination to get the job done.
