    Tommy Bolger is running for president...he'd be better than the fairies that usually get the job

    not sure what to say about this? poor choice of words? fairies has other concoctions in your part of the village? homophobic? sexist?

    Wow disgusting vernacular used, expext tommy bolger has already lost the four hundred votes from the out in UL soc, should really be more careful with choosing his campaign team. I'll be campaigning for Adam anyway. Any rumours on PSU elections?

    A friend on council told me Tommy was seen at the USI talk on monday however I don't think he's going to be a serious candidate.

    I've heard Adams name pop up but apparently he's not running. If he did run for SU again I think a few eyebrows would be raised. Running for a second term after your first is fine but running after you were defeated when you ran for re-election...erm..

    Are PhDs students obliged to take a sabbatical year if they are psu presidents? Ora can they continue on concurrently doing both

    Hi guys,

    I'm not quite sure who wrote the comment above mentioning the mythical creature from Irish folklore. What sprung to mind when reading the thread that ensued was a video posted by the Iona Institute just over a year ago. I know I'm only promoting the sheer archaic nature of the Iona Institute by sharing the video below but it definitely makes you think about "how far we've come". but I'm sure whoever wrote the comment didn't mean it in that way just rather allowed their passion get the better of them for a brief moment.

    How and ever the purpose of this post is to confirm the rumour that I will be running for president and that, believe it or not, I am not from the Dark ages :)

    And the purpose of this thread is to share what we've heard about people running so apologies for the small rant above, I'm new to Boards this is actually my first post. The only rumor I've heard is Cathal for PSU but not sure how much truth is in that.

    Tommy

    Might be best to save that for the actual election thread once all the candidates are announced, just have everything in one place.

    Just in my opinion.

    If my last post came across as backseat modding, then apologies, it wasn't the intention, twas just a suggestion.

    First of all thanks for the welcoming message. With regard to your question, I hope I get to answer it thoroughly, in person, during the campaign week.

    Yeah it's probably a good idea for you not to interact with the users of boards. Already you've already outed yourself as a anti-Iona institute homophobe, if that doesn't alienate you from 99% of the community I don't know what will .

    I say it hard to change hats :pac: but you have a point, not from a modding point of view. If Tommy begins to campaign now it might lead to him being in trouble with the ERB.

    According to the latest email, no-one. Rod wins by default

    Probably because PSU president has less of a chance with impressionable freshers:D

    Have they got rid of the free condoms? My lady friend is abroad so I wouldn't know :o

    I always thought they should leave them in a big bucket outside the office, much more convenient. Would vote for anyone who did that.

    Let ϵ > 0.

    students demand condoms for < ϵ euro ∀ ϵ and ULSU should meet demand of population

    => condoms = 0 euro.

    What about Triona?


  • Registered Users Posts: 782 ✭✭✭Reiver


    Did she express an interest?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 35 marblepaper


    What I have heard so far...Bogue for PREZ. Cathal Ronan for PSU. Tríona? ? ?

    I can't see her running to be honest, her name comes up regularly but she denies it every time towards the end of the week.
    Tríona is a prominent figure around UL and recently has been seen around C & S, but did she resign from a position in Class Reps a few years ago? Can anyone confirm this? There is potential there, too. I can't see her running to be honest, her name comes up regularly but she denies it every time towards the end of the week. I would not complain if Porter was running again.
