News

    Good evening. This is the 6th time I have written to you in a Weekly Update, where so many decisions have been announced that shaped the history of this JCR. Each time I have done so to discuss with you some matter that I believe affected the JCR's interest.

    In all the decisions I have made in my public life, I have always tried to do what was best for the JCR. Throughout the long and difficult last three days, I have felt it was my duty to persevere, to make every possible effort to ensure the continuation of tonight's GM.

Looking for a hot new valentine’s watch? Well, I predict this rec will be your OTP…

‘The Barbie Diaries’ (2006) may seem like an obscure blast from the past, but as an aficionado of the BCU , and a venerated person of taste, I argue that this dark horse should be bumped to the top of anyone’s ‘Netflix and Chill’ watch list this valentines. With a crisp average rating of 3.2/5 stars on Letterboxd, the public clearly agrees.

10. People could just be drugging their brain by scrolling through Instagram.

13. Every email sent to the JCR has a carbon footprint approximately equal to a 2hr car journey.

19. No one cares about silly lists of random numbers.
