Frazer Mullins
We as students haven't consistently been given the proper communication and deserve. As student leader I would be a voice for us all, so we could all enjoy greater input on decisions made. It doesn't feel completely fair that a team of 6 have all the say over things which affect us all, which I'm offering to change.................click here to read my full statement.
