Episode 5: Should big oil be funding clubs and socs?

What is it with UCL, the Students’ Union and their hypocrisy around climate action? This week on Grater Insight, Editor-in-Chief Robert Delaney was joined by Housing & Accommodation Officer Ben Scanlan and Cheese Grater Society President Lily Park to discuss Union policy and the climate crisis. Issues around the experiences of working students were also discussed after a report from The Cheese Grater exposed UCL History for failing to consider recommendations by advisory groups on the issue.
