The Oxford Union Society is the worlds oldest existing debating society Even though the Union has members there is an additional qualification to stand for election, a member must have spoken at two debates in the term they wish to stand before the close of hustings. These are 'qualified members'.

Otherwise you will end up with serious liability issues. > -----Original Message----- > From: David W.
