Clare Solomon wins ULU presidency

Clare Solomon, who I backed, has won the ULU presidency on anti-cuts programme.

I backed her and I teach in a ULU covered college, so I am very pleased.

Clare has been involved in Counterfire, a new political project, marrying Zizek to socialist politics.

Exciting stuff.

A straw in the wind to some more feisty student politics at the University of London Union and beyond. It shows that if the left embrace the open source future they can win.

What about Ian Drummond, Respect National Committee Member, who won ULU Vice President? Is he not left-wing enough, Derek?
