Key Points Since Last Meeting Príomhphointí ón gcruinniú deireanach

General Elections Hustings (TU Dublin SU Campus) - Livestreamed the event on both Instagram & Facebook - Nobody was available to minute the meeting, however, there is still the videos online - We had the following parties present: - (Emer Currie) ( denied the invitation as he was not in Dublin for it) - Fianna Fail (Jack Chambers) - Sinn Fein (Paul Donnelly) - Labour () - Green Party (Roderic O’Gorman) - Social Democrats (Aengus O’Máolain) - AonTú (Edward MacManus) - / People Before Profit (Ruth Coppinger) - Held a Faux Poll afterwards, the results, upon reflecting back on the referendum was interesting as the results for the 4 DubW seats are as follows; - Ruth Coppinger (SOL/PBP) - Paul Donnely (SF) - Roderic O’Gorman (GP) - Joan Burton (LAB)

Did a fair bit of lobbying and awareness raising for the GE2020 and it was my main priority since the last Student Council.
