The Junior President's Welcome
OSLA is a core part of political debate in Oxford, with students from all perspectives discussing the happenings of the week gone by. A welcoming place where evenings are as entertaining as they are enlightening. I am proud to lead this Liberal society as its first President from Oxford Brookes in its 113-year history. At a time where populism and sensationalism threaten our Liberal values, it is important we can create an environment where one feels welcome and productive.
As a society, we regularly take trips out of Oxford including to Parliament, the Welsh Senedd, think tanks and the National Liberal Club; there is no better place for experiencing politics in Oxford than OSLA. We also hear from former Liberal Democrat leaders and current senior figures in the party.
This website, brilliantly and diligently maintained by our Webmaster Kshitij Wadkar, provides everything that you need to know about the society. From our amazing ‘Freedom of the Press’ blog to the membership shop and the ever-essential term card (and more). Make sure to follow our Instagram page for the latest updates from the Association. Don't hesitate in coming to our next event!
Yours Liberally,
Thomas Dorey
