This post is a response to a message from a fellow student in Manchester. For the actual post, see after the article.

I have been an enthusiastic observer of the American Presidential Election recently. Last year, when he declared his intention in contesting for the Presidential Nomination, Barack Obama has been predicted as one of the candidates that will win the sit for the White House, representing Democrats.
Living in the United States for almost two years had [...]

There’s a big difference between practicality and indifference. Reading an opinion on the 3rd December edition of SD about how the University Union is not serving the interests of their students and focusing instead on ‘irrelevant’ issues that do not directly serve the interests of ‘average students who do not really care that much’.

Minggu ini “Solidarity with Palestine Week”, anjuran Action Palestine, University of Manchester.
