NEWS: Queen’s Socialists to protest at Vice-Chancellor’s office
Tuesday, November 23rd, 2010
Queen’s Socialist Society intends to protest outside the Vice-Chancellor’s office next Tuesday afternoon in opposition to the Browne review. This comes at a time when its members have been increasingly critical of the Students’ Union’s tactics in its campaign against the Browne review, and argue that the SU should hold more large demonstrations similar to those held previously in the campaign. Announcing the protest for next Tuesday at 1.00pm, Queen’s Socialist Society Secretary, Tyler McNally said “You can’t just go out and go home.”
