I will be posting this annonymously for one reason or another, but there is more than 1 YUSU sab. last night who changed their mind on the issue, as well as other individuals who were diametrically opposed to her removal and are now fully behind (if anon.) the proposal.

Dan put personalities behind on the night; Grace and her supporters did not. Russull Truran and another of her friends claimed that personalitites should be taken into account, and as someone who abhors ALL violence, I find this entirely unnaceptable. Violence against a student. Any student, is wrong. They were making the case that because it was 'Dan Taylor', it legitimised it. Like someones politics or not, you do not hit them because you don't like it. In fairness to the chap, he would have probably wanted to hit that feminit speaker against Laura Payne's motion...he did not. This is the bottom line, that Grace hit another student and if you believe this is wrong, put political divides aside and recognise her position is untenable.

I also welcomed the constitutional point that Grace's position would be filled within the next few weeks and that it was the rold of other sabs. constitutionally, to take over her role on a te mporary basis. As someone who was also opposed to her removal before last night, Dan's ability to steer it away from personal lines and Grace's emotionally blackmailing speech turned it for me.

If anyone else in any other industry/job/profession hit a college they did not like, they would all be walking around with bruises. On top of that, they would all be out of a job. Grace, I am afraid to say, should go.
