Durham Students’ Union (DSU) has revealed that the disqualified Re-Open Nominations (RON) option won 58% of first-preference votes in February’s Officer and Trustee elections.
A motion proposes to substantially change membership to the Durham Student Union's Assembly, including the removal of college common rooms' right to elect their college representative - SU college reps will instead be voted via campus-wide elections.
UCU Branch President Sol Gamsu spoke to Palatinate from the picket lines of last term's strikes, highlighting the reasons for strike action.
The change comes despite over 80% of students saying they were more aligned with their college than the SU in the SU's democracy review.
