Why do we need a Union?
Because we are over-privileged students and will easily walk into well paid jobs and we enjoy living in slums and can walk miles to university and live on almost nothing and pay for our own education and have parents who give us lots of money and we don’t eat and we shouldn’t drink or waste money on nights out in discos, at concerts or in the theatre and we never need new clothes and shouldn’t get married and don’t have children and should be under 25 and if we are heterosexual we are easy and if we are gay men or lesbians we are queers and if we ask too many questions we are agitators and if we don’t we are not putting in enough effort and we shouldn’t get involved in politics and if we pass exams we should be grateful and if we don’t we should quietly go away and we shouldn’t make our own decisions about our education or our own lives and if we are black or Asian we have no right to be here and if we are women we should be at home and as students we are a burden on the state and we should shut up and take it….for these and many other reasons….we are active members of UWB Students’ Union.
UWBSU – your active campaigning union…be a part of it.
Should we put this in the handbook to new students? Can anyone see anyway to improve it?

I would have it as the entire cover of the handbook - change a few around a bit, have them separated by dots...black text, and then the Union logo and the title of the book in red amongst it all.
Great idea, actually. Sure I can nick it for something...

It'd be great having it on the handbook. Something nice'n'arty to catch people's attention. I'd also like to see more posters around the union: that'd be a nice one.
