EXTRACURRICULAR Politics Club
This term, the Politics Club looked at several prevalent topics.This included subjects such as professional athletes and their ability to use their exposure to spread awareness about key social issues before matches and should big tech companies be regulated by the government? Whilst having these topics in mind, we have been able to construct complex debates for topics such as the power of conglomerate corporations over citizens around the world and whilst the act of taking a knee is an effective way to raise awareness of campaigns such as BLM, we also decided that further, more direct action needed to be taken by professional teams. Now that we are back to being in a physical classroom, we’re very excited for future debates next term and discussing the affirmative and negative arguments regarding societal issues.
