The Union has at last achieved their equivalent of the Holy Trinity.
The society has currently the best university debaters in Britain, Europe and the world.
The John Smith Memorial Mace, European and World Universities Debating Championships (EUDC and WUDC) are three of the most prestigious events for University debaters, and one organisation succeeding in all three at once is previously unheard of in the debating history.
Jonathan Leader Maynard and Alex Worsnip are the J. Smith Memorial Mace Champions. Maynard also won the EUDC Champions with Shengwu Li. The current Union President, James Dray, along with Will Jones, is the WUDC Champion.
“No other institution has ever won the World and European Championships and International Mace in one year – is very special indeed,” said Jonathan Leader Maynard.
He added, “I’m very proud and happy to have been just a part of one of the greatest debating achievements the Union, or any other society, has yet achieved.”
