Union to have French “President” and “Prime Minister”

Imperial College Union have decided to re-restructure the sabbatical officer positions following recent developments in French politics. Seeing the resounding success of President Emmanuel Macron, the Union will now just have a President, who they will shuffle out for ceremonial reasons, and a prime minister, who will be replaced every one to three months. 

The Union will “retire” all current sabbatical officers, with a spokesperson for the Union saying, “we’ll take them to a nice farm upstate, now they’ve all graduated.” The move was unilaterally voted in by the Union Council and ratified at the Union’s Board of Trustees earlier this month.

The French government welcomed the news, telling NegaFelix that they were glad people finally appreciated the fact that the government collapsing several times in the past year was actually really for representative democracy and no cause for alarm. “In fact, it may help speed up Union processes, especially how long it takes the Activities team to approve things,” President Macron said in a press statement. “I’m finally overjoyed that we have some good press for once.”
