No 'Big Guns' at MSA AGM

No 'Big Guns' at MSA AGM

Dear Sir,

I was very disappointed at the MSA annual general meeting that the presidents of VUWSA and NZUSA did not turn up at the meeting just as they did at the MSSA annual general meeting. At the MSA annual general meeting I was not even allowed to vote because I was told that I was not a financial member. If the MSSA meeting could give me the privilege, I can see no reason why the MSA meeting could not do the same.

I am sure that if the presidents of both VUWSA and NZUSA were present they would have helped the plight of the non-financial members just as they did at the MSSA meeting where the VUWSA president helped overcome the constitutional question of voting rights. They only have to open their mouths and the whole constitutional requirements fall to pieces. It was really great to have such persuasive and patronising patrons as these two gentlemen. So I would appeal to all overseas student bodies to invite the presidents of both VUWSA and NZUSA when they have, their meetings because these two gents are capable of altering any constitution without the need of two-thirds of three-quarters majority My salute to them. Thank you.
