Is the Era of Cheap Internet Surveys Over? Sat Nov 22, 2025 15:00 | Noah Carl
Is the era of cheap internet surveys over? A new paper demonstrates that AIs can now be "trivially programmed" to answer online surveys in ways that are essentially indistinguishable from humans.

Thank Lockdowns for the Worst Budget in History Sat Nov 22, 2025 13:00 | Will Jones
We're a week away from the most painful Budget in history thanks largely to the eye-watering cost of lockdown. Yet Baroness Hallett says next time the Government must be ready to go harder and faster. This is insanity.

Taxpayers Are Charged for the BBC Whether They Like it or Not Sat Nov 22, 2025 11:00 | Charlotte Gill
It's bad enough that all UK TV users are forced to fund the BBC via a TV licence. But it's worse than that, says Charlotte Gill: millions of pounds of taxpayers' money are handed to the corporation via backdoor channels.

World Kindness Day may have passed you by. But it won't have passed by your children, whose school will have been sure to teach that climate action and open borders are essential elements of 'kindness', says Steven Tucker.

Jump To Comment: 7 6 5 4 3 2 1Look some Unions are backing the Bin tax campaign.
the best way to get more on board is not to criticise those who do. Don't let personal vandettas get in the way in the campaign.
Last year Dillon stood on a programme in the SU class rep elections that clearly stated that Class rep trips away were junkets/piss ups for hacks. And that he would use his position on council to have training take place on campus.
Now when in power he is organising the junket and free booze paid for with students money.
A clear sell out.
"Paul Dillon ran as a kind of radical Labour leftie or something,he I am guessing is too busy eyeing up the girls (plenty of lickarses in SU) and planning drinking nights....For fucks sake these two are as right wing as any FG etc. hack "
Ah yes, paul Dillon is a secret FGer, I see it all now - that's why he became involved in CFE and took part in plenty of direct action - he was trying to impress Enda Kenny!
Paul Dillon ran as a kind of radical Labour leftie or something,he I am guessing is too busy eyeing up the girls (plenty of lickarses in SU) and planning drinking nights. He must have came under some pressure, and it wasnt from goddamned Regan either. For fucks sake these two are as right wing as any FG etc. hack
ho ho ho
tee hee hee
i wonder who UCD hack is? all of about 4 people id say.
and why the ' ' around 'radical' paul dillon? id dont remember him standing on a platform announcing his own 'radicalness' "im a right radical so and so am i" - do you?
he has is and always has been labour left. did he ever deny that?
make a point.... not a bitter rant.
i too aggree that all su s and tu s should stand behind joe and clare.and im sure they will.
_______cut here ray, if your in da club _______

now that they've discussed it, what are they going to do about it? ALL SU officers in the Eastern area should be out on the demo on tuesday not just a few, they should also mobilise their members! Last year Joe Higgins was a great support to students, now is time to help him and Clare out!
Apparently even the 'radical' Paul Dillon of UCDSU wasn't even too happy with a Sabbatical Officer attending the High Court on Monday where a member of his SU could have been sent to prison for a month! SU officers- stop your ego trips and get down to the work of camapigning for the end of draconian laws that jailed Joe and Clare!

good work sus. will any mobilisation of the subjects be going on?? oh i do hope so. we should get as many students as possible along to the bin tax protests.
good to see the rad wing of usi out and about.
