Tees Should Go
Tees Should Go
Dear Sir,
The President of the Students' Association is hound by the constitution to follow the association policy. Therefore the policy making body can force the President to resign. This can simply be by passing a motion of no confidence in the President. Mr Tees should note therefore that had he succeeded in removing policy making from SRC to the executive, he would now be out of a job.
Note also Mr Tees the contradiction between your moving one week a motion calling for the minutes of the Executive meetings to be made in public then the next week you claim they should not. Perhaps you could explain this apparent contradiction.
Finally I wish to ask Mr Tees if he considers such name tailing as "you arrogant little animal" and a reply of "go and fart against a wall or something" as being consistent with his job of uniting the Executive.
Stephen Ruth.
P.S. Can the Editor of Salient tell me under what conditions the Executive can sack the President and call an election?
(It is not possible to "force" any representative to resign. Nor is the Executive empowered to dismiss any elected representative. That can only be done by a General Meeting of the Association, which can be called by the Executive, by three Executive members or by 75 ordinary members of the Association - ed. )
