📢 Announcement 📢
Jess and I are teaming up to talk accountability. If elected we both plan on using our platforms to hold the university accountable on issues that are important to students.
I'm backing Jess for Union Affairs and Comms as she said 'When facing problems of this magnitude, it is vital we use our voices.' I believe that The Gryphon can be used to amplify our voices on these issues during this time.
If you want to see the university held to account follow Owen for Gryphon and say Yes to Jess for Union Affairs and Comms.
