At time of going to press, the re-run of the 1997 ICU Presidential Sabbatical Election was looking to be another low key affair. Following last term’s overwhelming vote for new election, only three candidates have put their names forward, Clare Buston of Biology and Managment, Olly Newman C&
In a world of "you and me", I am the one that let you go, I am the love that’s been set free. I am a flower in a bed of snow, I am a ship that’s lost at sea, Will I ever see the shore
The scoreline of this game is (once more) a poor reflection of the true game. Our lads, clearly the superior side were beset by horrific setbacks throughout the match. Slough kicked off and soon brought the ball to our end of the pitch. There they proceeded to kick it between

Simon Baker is one of Felix’s more entertaining writers. Here is a man who arouses the most amazing passions in me. Fascist he is not, but he IS Harry Enfield’s (the "Bollinger Bolshevik") poor misguided Tory Boy. Contrary to Mr Baker’s economy boasts, the latest
On the 9th of March, the ULU judo team defended their 95-96 BUSA Championship title. After a disappointing outcome in the individual fights on the previous day, including several injuries, the team morale was somehow low. But the spirit picked up after a 5-0 win in the first fight. Aris
