HILARY 2020

PRESIDENT’S WELCOME
In this sombre time of year when Christmas trees lie slumped on
pavements and many try to atone for festive excess with a vow of
teetotalism, OUCA has plenty to offer.
Our weekly Port & Policy returns to St Giles’ Church Hall on
Sunday evenings and promises lots of spirited fun. Anyone with
ideas to suggest for debate motions should keep an eye out for a link
in our weekly emails.
An exciting range of speakers will be joining us in Oxford, with
highlights including veteran eurosceptic Daniel Hannan, party
chairman James Cleverly, and Thatcher biographer Charles Moore.
Our speaker events are free and open to all.
Our social calendar features much-loved classics such as Poker
Night and Pub Quiz as well as some innovations — what better way
to celebrate the crumbling of Labour’s Red Wall than a crewdate
with Northerners Society?
There are plenty of other ways to get involved: we will be organising
sandwich runs to help the homeless population of Oxford,
welcoming contributions to our revitalised blog, and trialling
telecanvassing as a new method of campaigning.
Finally, stay tuned for details of our Termly Dinner — due to take
place in Eighth Week, this promises to be a splendid celebration of
the end of term.
