0:00 What is your name, degree, year of study, age? 0:16 And your slogan and colour? 0:21 And campaign manager? 0:30 Are you aligned with a political party? 1:04 What other factions are you being supported by? 1:33 Not to say anything bad about the Conservative Club, but what is it they see in you that they like? 2:11 Is it individuals within the Conservative Club that support you, or the Conservative Club in general? 2:38 Which other candidates do you think you share a political philosophy with? 3:11 Who will you give your first preference and last preference to? 4:17 If elected who will you vote for for President of the Union? 5:19 You said you would have voted to keep Tom Raue on board. Do you think there's a deficit in transparency on board, and if so how would you solve that deficit? 8:00 You mentioned that the Union was becoming more corporate. Can you talk about how that's played out and the specific instances you've seen of the board being more corporate interfering with student interests? 10:17 What do you consider to be too far on the corporate spectrum? 11:21 You mentioned you'd support a number of constitutional amendments to increase transparency. Can you talk about what those amendments would be? 12:44 What are your three policy priorities? 16:12 On your Access card policy, you said you would in the form get students to indicate their engagement with the Union. How much would that play into it with regard to their financial position as well? 17:03 On the USU jobs policy, you mentioned bar casuals and the marketing department. Do you think cutting out people who don't or didn't go to the University of Sydney is cutting out people who could potentially be great staff? Why do you see USyd experience as essential? 18:39 If you had to cut $1m from the budget, what would you cut? 20:02 What do you think is the most important area of the budget? 21:00 There's been quite a lot of talk, including from your campaign manager Robby Magyar, that the staff of the Union and particularly the CEO have too much power and the Board is often acting as a rubber stamp. Do you agree that the CEO has too much power? What do you think is the appropriate role of executive staff in the union? 24:22 What's your opinion on the policies and achievements of the current Board? How would you rate Hannah Morris' presidency? 25:58 Last time the USU ordered bean bags they were quite expensive.Your policy is specifically for bean bags at Hermann's, people are sometimes not their best at Hermann's. Is this program more trouble than it's worth? 27:25 One of your policies is more parking for USU staff. Where would these spaces be? 28:47 You mentioned that you saw yourself as ideologically to Ed McMahon, who is also running in this election, and yet a lot of your policies are C&S; proposals, or proposals to improve the student experience. Ed supports quite an activist role for the USU, would you support that role as well? 31:51 As well as more consultation between the USU and collectives, would you be comfortable with the USU giving resources to collectives?
