Predict this year’s VUWSA Exec scandal.
I shall wed Kate Moss, she shall become my (free) PA. Pete Doherty will consume too much cocaine, travel to Wellington to win her back, and end up barricading himself inside the VUWSA offices playing us all Babyshambles until we relent. However, my love for Kate Moss is too strong for him to overcome, and Pete Doherty shall instead become VUWSA President whilst Kate and I eat lots of pies and move to Taihape.

Katie de Roo (Clubs Officer)

What is one thing you hope to achieve this year?
Make myself known on campus so that I am an easy and accessible port of call for any issues/aspirations that clubs have.

Helen or John (or other)?
Helen 100%. She is a true [New Zealand] leader that will continue to take New Zealand forward as she has done from 1999. John will take us back to the 90s, and who wants that? Predict this year’s VUWSA Exec scandal. Melissa, alcohol, naked man, security… oh wait, hasn’t that already happened?
