Mark my words - we're taking down the mural of white men in the uni Senate room, even if I have to paint over it myself

The mural she's talking about: A painting of Southampton Uni students who went to fight in the 1st World War and sadly never returned to collect their degrees.
Spicey
She wouldn't last 2 mins in a Ivy League uni I bet. I noticed one person replied she was sending her daughter to a foreign university because the left have taken over and run the Student Unions.
Stupid, ghastly, cretin, she needs to have a word with herself.
This sounds a bit like hate speech. Someone should report her.
appalling, have they no effin clue as to the sacrifices men made in making this country safe, specifically in two world wars. Women too so i am not being sexist.
I’m always amused by these idiots. They never fail to see the irony that hundreds of thousands of combatants gave their lives in order to preserve the democracy that allows them to spout their vitriolic outbursts and sick diatribe.

As Blackadder would say:

University education eh....? You can’t beat it!
This pseudo intellectual snowflake is a racist and sexist.If her whinges are to highlight lack of diversity then I suggest that she reflect that brave men who paid the ultimate sacrifice died to protect diversity and other values. After all Hitler was not too big on diversity was he?
I wonder if student unions actually concern themselves with student welfare these days or whether it's all about childish pseudo-political nonsense.
Thankfully the University have distanced themselves from Emily's facile remarks.

i should hope so. ^^
Oh dear. Lets hope her parents are proud because I cant see many others will be.
What an astonishingly stupid and ill-informed woman.

WW1 was not the simple 'fight to save our country' that WW2 was - indeed it *was* mainly about the male patriarchy and aristocracy settling scores in an expansionist war - but the people who fought and died in it were no part of that.

We should respect and applaud their heroism and sacrifice, even if we deplore the actions which placed them in that situation - the blind failure to understand that leaves me speechless.

[ the only alternative is that this woman didn't actually bother to find out what the mural was about, before making her threat to deface it - and no-one who is bright enough to become the President of the SU would fail to do her research ... would she? ]
Emily Dawes. Definitely future school teacher material then, or a glittering future in the police or armed forces beckons.
Idiot.
She has apologised.
Original tweet now deleted and a belated apology posted ...

... but you can't put that cat back in the bag, Emily dear - the re-tweets and screen grabs will live on.

Too little, too late and (hopefully) the damage to her future has been done.
I think idiocy at student age should have a fading affect over time. Age gives the opportunity for increased wisdom from previous experience.
True OG - I was also probably a bit of a dick at 18-21 - thankfully the knowledge of the extent of my naïveté was limited to a few other twits in the locality.

Twitter does no favours to those who twit quickly but think slowly.
Makes you think what the other candidates were like tho, if Emily has made it to Union President.

Why should the police or armed forces be blighted by her presence?
