EDITORIAL: Whatever you say, say it clear
Tuesday, November 29th, 2011
The last council showed how its members are either not aware of the protocol, or it demonstrated their total disregard for the rules. “Troops off Campus” are not everybody’s cup of tea, and their questions aim to shock and succeed at getting people’s backs up. Trying to discuss whether the Union is opposed to the British army and war is neither here nor there. The issue is that they weren’t given a fair chance to speak. Points of Order do not have to be accepted by the person speaking. Never was anyone allowed to say whether they could accept the Point of Order or not. After proposing a motion and the discussion, a summary is meant to be given, people should not need to shout from the back that they are allowed to speak again.

EDITORIAL: Strike while the iron is hot
Tuesday, November 29th, 2011
This week will see the largest strike action in generations taking place. It will not just be limited to Queen’s, almost every public sector worker will be joining the pickets. There will be demonstrations, marches and lots of angry managers. The government is trying its best to put out propaganda about how much it will cost the economy, how it’s going to stop an already non-existent recovery. They are threatening that if workers strike negotiations will be halted and plans will implemented as they are.
