Redpath Un-phased by Ballot Absence

Alexander Redpath, Tea Party Candidate for VP Campaigns and Communications, has said he is un-phased by the absence of his name from posters, Gown reports and indeed the ballot paper. Mr Redpath commented,

"I have never taken the voting process into account in my electoral strategy. Indeed I have stood in several elections where the actual number of votes I received made no impact on my eventual inevitable victory.

However to counteract this I have decided to grow a large moustache and adopt the name and mannerisms of a well known San Diego news anchor who amazingly is on all the ballots.

I would also like to take this opportunity to announce a new flagship policy. I like Caitriona Ruane believe that selection on the basis of academic ability is unfair, barbaric and likely to result in the worlds immediate explosion. Therefore if elected I will change the QUB entrance requirements to the new craic scale invented by myself.

Instead of entrance on the basis of A-levels prospective Queen’s Students will be assessed on how much craic they are. This will be assessed by the central committee of craic which will be elected annually at the inaugural meeting of the Queen’s Student Council. The committee will put students through a gruelling entrance exam including how fast they can chug 2ltres of milk, a last (wo)man standing china china eat off and of course the jailbreak.

All appeals will be made to the university senate where they will be duly ignored.
