Student Union leaders impose 'ban' on Remembrance service

[Chippiewill]

Clearly not banning anything, it says right there in words that they simply aren't allowed to suggest that they're attending in an official capacity on behalf of ULU. They can still go.

Absolutely agree. Who gives a **** that the senior union members can't attend in official capacity, they can still attend in the manner which matters.. physically.

They're using Remembrance Sunday as a snub so they can make some headlines.

Yeah, those are some pretty positive headlines it's getting.

Point is, if you don't like The Sun then don't buy it.

Point is, if you don't like immigrants you don't have to talk to them.

Any publicity is good publicity as they say.

I dislike all immigrants do I just because I argue our borders should be controlled? lolcano.

It's not a ban. They're not attending in an official capacity. As the article states (and a bit of research elsewhere), they're against unnecessary military action.

Also, I do not understand the ban on The Sun newspaper. At my University, there's no demand for it and it doesn't really exist on campus. It's strange because they're currently voting to ban it. You can't ban something that no one buys There aren't really any newspapers on campus in general! It seems brought on by some external organisation like the NUS, if other Universities are doing it.
