Dear All,
I have said that equality is not as big an issue for UCC student union, and i stand by that. I believe that it is much more important to prioritise issues that affect the entire student body, such as catering and the library. This does NOT mean that i am anti-equality, it just means that i have not come across huge equality problems in my time here at UCC. If i did, then of course i would act on them. Until that happens though, i will stand by my comments and work to give equality of opportunity to all students in relation to services. I believe that this is much more important than running a campaign on equality issues, especially when paul appears to be the only one who feels strongly on this.
Also, i am sick and tired of paul invading my privacy and posting my comments in a text message in a public space (two, including this site). Where's my right to privacy paul? I would have thought that you were all for rights (judging from your comments), but apparently its only when it concerns you.
Note to all readers: i have attmepted to contact mr mcandrew a number of times, and he doesn't answer his phone, so how can we possibly debate these issues? It appears that he prefers to post my private comments and blacken my name rather than sitting down with me and talking this out.
My email is below, and i wuld welcome comments.
