John,

My name actually is Jack Sparrow….

And I agree with David. Why should someone have to put their name at the bottom? What difference does it make?

“The final list of candidates for the upcoming YUSU elections has been released exclusively to Nouse”

Then I think you should publish it.

What you currently have is only information about candidates for sabbatical officer positions.

Well that’s not a great reason, is it? If it had been another position where someone was standing unopposed, such as welfare or societies, would Dan have stood for that, irrespective of experience or interest in the role? If so then that’s pretty contemptuous of students and their need to have officers who are actually able and dedicated. If not then it seems like he just has a personal vendetta against Matt Burton.

Also, I don’t really see how it matters whether people put their names. What matters is what is said, not the identity of the person who says it.

As far as i know dan was only standing because matt burton was running unopposed, when it became clear others were standing that reason was gone.

Also if you’re going to openly slag someone off you might at least have the decency to do it with your name at the bottom.

I believe you’re most probably right. That and most of the university don’t even like the chap. Regardless of the GFH situation, he’s still a nasty piece of work.

Maybe because he realised that the whole University sees him as a jumped up hypocrite for even thinking of standing for something he disagrees with so much?
