Victoria University Great Debate

February 28th, 2011 at 3:06 pm by David Farrar

The Victoria University Great Debate is on Tuesday March 1st at 6.30 at the Student Union Building’s Hunter Lounge at Victoria University.

The moot is “that there should be a universal liquor allowance for students“.

For the affirmative:

  • Simon Bridges MP
  • James Nokise (two times Billy T Award Nominee)
  • Josh Cameron – allround funny debater

For the Negative:

  • Darren Hughes MP
  • Jim Stanton (One half of Wellington’s Comediettes)
  • Jerome Chandrahasen - stalwart of the Great Debate and Billy T nominee.

The debate is always a very enjoyable affair. Tickets will cost $10, and you can pay at the door.

    One ought to be certifiably mad to pay to listen to Ginga Hughes!
    I’m sure the other speakers are very good, but the presence of the-son-Helen-never-had ruins the whole function.

    [DPF: Darren is in fact a very very funny speaker and debater. If I was organising a debate, I'd want him on the team]

    I’ve spent all day looking at the new batch, I wouldn’t trust them with sugar on their coco pops let alone alcohol.

    I thought it was synonymous with “student loan.”
