Vote and submit ideas!

The Ideas System is simple way for students to submit ideas and vote on ideas from other students. If it's something simple, we will look into it straight away and see if it can be acheived. If it needs more resource and student support, it needs 50 positive votes to go to the most relevant Council. Here it can be voted on as policy and change can be campaigned for! Click here for more information and previous ideas.

To rate an idea that has already been submitted, simply select thumbs up or thumbs down to indicate whether you like the idea or not. That's how simple our system is! You can also add comments to ideas and start a discussion with your fellow students.

If you have any queries regarding the ideas system, please email su-council@le.ac.uk

Please note: Once an idea is submitted, it has 2 weeks to reach the 50 positive votes needed to move to the next stage in the policymaking process. Ideas will automatically go down after 6 months.

Disaffilate from the NUS

Submitted 1 year ago by Theo Mirfin

0comments

I propose a referendum on the Union's membership of the NUS. The NUS is an “hostile environment” for Jewish students with “numerous instances” of antisemitism according to a recent report. Further, Leicester Union backed the disgraced former NUS president Shaima Dallali in her role. The NUS is unfit for purpose and does not represent the views of students. We should follow the other 16 universities since 2016 and Warwick and Oxford in recent weeks who have proposed disaffiliating from the NUS.
