Time for a post election discussion over beer. A couple of Oxford alumni lost their seats and a couple were elected so let’s hear what you think were the factors that led to a Liberal win. Or just stick to normal chat and don’t mention the election at all.
Whatever your pick, there will be plenty of interesting folks to talk to at the pub night next Tuesday, 27 October at the Oxley pub in Yorkvile from 6pm. We will be in the cozy bar upstairs.

The pub night is a great opportunity to catch-up on the Society’s events, meet old and new friends, and sample some great beers. The food’s not bad either.
