A reflection on core texts

What could I buy with £9,250? I couldn’t buy a car, but considering my lack of a license and the small insignificant detail of having failed my test four times, I’m okay with that. I couldn’t buy a house, but who the heck can nowadays? But I could buy my course books, El Balneario and La […]

Grenfell Tower: Unanswered questions

The fire that engulfed Grenfell tower on the 14th of June broke the heart of the nation, with media outlets expressing sympathy and outrage on behalf of those affected. As soon as the flames were extinguished, efforts to assign blame and call for justice began mounting. Whilst some place the blame on corporate apathy and austerity, […]

Home Is Where The Food Is

I was raised the right way by my parents. I know that’s a bold claim, but I was raised with good values; a love of food and a deep appreciation for anything that’s free. For most students that’s what home means: free food. I won’t lie, my parents are great cooks and I enjoy the […]

Jailbreak – raising money to escape Exeter!

Sitting in the Library. Four hours down and four more to go. Naturally I’m procrastinating, and daydreaming about a weekend away, a beach holiday maybe? I sigh, and turn back to my work. “As if that’s ever going to happen, dream on…” But through Jailbreak, I quite literally said ‘screw it’, dumped my work and my classes […]

New Year’s Resolutions: Just another capitalist guilt trip?

This Christmas I was given guilt as a gift but, naturally, with the state of the postal service, it arrived just in time for New Year’s Day. Perfect timing: New Year, new me, right? Bollocks. I’ve never really understood this perverse annual self-depreciation contest, feeling bad about yourself or your indulgences. We roll off the […]

Review: Passengers

— Spoilers Ahead — Perhaps I am a biased critic. Admittedly, I had never wanted to see Passengers in the first place – I was dragged by my brothers for a Christmas Eve outing, prompted by my parents who had arranged to meet with Santa Claus. Sigh. I gave in and made a resolution to go […]

Take me back to fairy dresses and apple bobbing

have I this picture from years ago, hanging up on my fairy lights in my room. I see it and it makes me laugh; a dumb picture of my dumb brothers in fairy costumes, me in the middle smiling ear to ear. Those were the good days of Halloween, with apple bobbing and cakes with black […]

Second thoughts: mind-reading

Creepy, right? The idea that someone could read my mind makes me really uneasy, although it’s mostly thinking of cute dogs or food. Nevertheless, I can’t help thinking what it would be like to be able to read someone’s mind. Would it make life easier, easing the paranoia of not knowing? Or would I just […]

Beauty Bombshells: Hiding the hangover

From bags to sallow complexion, a heavy night in the Lemmy always shows on your face in the morning – but never fear! Here are some top tips to stay looking fresh all day. First step is to moisturise. It’s so important to keep your skin hydrated after a night out, and a big part […]

Beauty Bombshells – high end favourites

I must confess that I spend far too much money on make-up, much to my debit card’s dismay; from high street department stores to Beauty Bay and Feel Unique, I can spend a big portion of my pocket money. So, if you’re looking for premium make-up to splash out on, here’s a list of my […]

As editors of student newspapers at all 24 Russell As editors of student newspapers at all 24 Russell Group universities, we stand united against the Russell Group statement which declared ‘no detriment’ or ‘safety net’ policies not to be ‘appropriate’ or ‘necessary’ for students at this time. 

Having listened to students at our universities, we are calling on the Russell Group to act compassionately and empathetically and to reconsider their stance on ‘no detriment’ politics for assessments this year. 

Students deserve to be listened to.
