If you really get the urge though, there's shops off campus.. its just about making a point, and highlighting what happened in Colombia.. and is your right to Coke at university more important than the right to life?
Well, ye have my vote anyway...i've been doing my own personal little boycott of coca cola products for the past four years (i don't agree with their bombardment advertising policies, the way they treat their staff, and of course the multi-national corporatism that they represent), anyway, its great to see the posters and stuff around college, reminds me that i am not alone! i reckon we're thinking too small though, i'd personally like to see the back of the coke machines they plonked into my hall on campus, (imagine my suprise when that showed up there last year), i really don't appreciate having to walk past that baby every day!
It so brave of students to take on Coca-Cola like this isn't it. Pity they wouldn't focus on the Big drink companies or even worse the drug dealers on all the campuses in Ireland. Drink and drugs are doing more damage to irish students than coca-cola is. All these so-called movements are a bunch of chicken shits, they are afraid to tackle any real issues
As someone who was involved in both referenda in UCD I wish all those in Maynooth the best for tomorrow. I think that the Coca Cola referenda in UCD, TCD and tomorrow in Maynooth were very important throughout the past year. They highlighted the human rights abuses of Coca Cola in Colombia and showed how important solidarity is with Trade Unionists that are facing oppression in Colombia.
I was involved in the coke referendums in UCD and one of the convincing arguments we used was that it wasn't UCD alone.Thanks for backing us up on that and whether you win or lose i'll remember you made the stand.
why do you and your party clones still drink coca cola Oisin?
is any plans for a campaign to ban coke in DCU next year?
