Transgender women are to be banned from playing women?s football in England following the Supreme Court ruling that trans women are legally men, as the FA follows its Scottish counterpart in bringing in a ban.

The media are wrong to pin the blame for the Canadian Conservatives' loss on Trump, says Prof James Allan. In truth, the Tories' vote was sky high ? but the Left-wing vote coalesced around Carney.

Has Tony Blair really turned on Net Zero? A close reading reveals the master of spin speaking out of both sides of his mouth, green fanaticism undimmed. Tony Blair will never be the solution to Ed Miliband, says Ben Pile.

Kneecap's vocal support for Hamas and call for fans to murder Tory MPs is obviously reprehensible. But it's just for show, says Andrew Doyle. The police shouldn't waste their time investigating rappers.

Hourihane losses referendum - USI must now step-up fight!

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Thursday November 28, 2002 16:04author by OK - SYUCD Report this post to the editors

Today UCD students voted to stay in the USI and gave a mandate to the USI to step up fight on fees.

The 'No' vote was 72.57% (2109), the 'Yes' vote 27.43% (797)

The No campaign was fought on the slogan "No to Fees, No to Disaffiliation". Despite the watering down of criticisms of the USI by some in the campaign, and the involvement of full-time USI officials in the campaign, the result can be interpreted as a mandate to the USI to escalate the campaign against fees.

USI disaffiliation was something very close to the FF SU President Aonghus Hourihane, this referendum defeat is another blow to his presidency.
