Taxpayers' money being wasted by a students' union leader. Quelle surprise. Maybe he's learned to show disdain for his members by watching the fat cat leaders of trades' unions...

I would just like to say that this is absolutely hilarious. As someone who has seen this all unfold, I would like to start from the beginning….

A facebook event was created by a visiting friend of the SU President in order to arrange a final night in Nottingham for people to go out before the SU president left for 2 weeks to Malaysia and China. Perfectly understandable.

On this event page, another member of the SU completely misinterpreted the event description, publicly writing in capital letters a statement expressing how they disagreed that the SU president was using the trip as a ‘piss up’. As I am sure you will now agree, this was an event in Nottingham, nothing to do with going on a drinking spree on the trip and clearly this message was written in error.

Therefore, the messages written by Nsikan to a friend who created the original event were written in my opinion in irony of it all and to highlight the stupidity and hilarity of this entire situation. The message written by Nsikan was even written in capitals to show the link between this message and the other.

Now, with the publishing of this all on this website it just shows how silly this entire situation is. I hope now with a fuller picture you will see that this is just a case of where I believe some people really need to get more of a sense of humour and more of an idea of the context of a situation before passing judgement.

Feel free to enlighten me if I am incorrect also.

Thank you

Nsikan, in becoming SU President, managed to break a long-time tradition of Karnival Presidents moving on to the position. But despite it being against the odds, from the start of his academic career he seems to have thought such 'authority' is his destiny. Such an ego he possesses, he believes he rightfully deserves an excess of the trappings of office.

Glad to see the Conservative machine at the University of Nottingham is as slick as ever. Keep it up guys. And give him a good seeing to at the next council meeting.
