Political Party Groupings

edit

The 'Groupings' section of this page includes Labour Students and the Youth and Student wings of 4 other parties - The Liberal Democrats, Conservatives, Greens and UKIP.

Labour Students used to compete in NUS elections, but the organisation no longer exists. The 4 other youth/student wings plus Young Labour do all organise within Students' Unions, but don't formally run candidates in NUS elections (or even individual Students' Union elections) and often aren't involved with intra-union campaigns at all (i.e. political party societies at universities often exist to share like minded ideas and contribute to political campaigning on the local and national level only, and campaigning to shift the direction of the Students' Union tends to be either a secondary aim or a non-aim).

With that all in mind, do any of them really belong there?

Is there a logic to which are included in this template and which aren't? OGBC1992 (talk) 10:44, 1 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
