Ben Scanlan

TOP TEN REASONS YOU SHOULD TRUST ME WITH THE TREASURE.

10) I know a bunch of good places to bury it. (I'm friends with loads of Pirates)

9) I want to sleep on a big pile of it like the dragon from the Hobbit (he's called Smaug)

8) It would be fun to carry it around in a big sack over my shoulder while I caused mischief

7) My friends in the EFS say they know loads of great cryptos to invest it into. Cryptocurrency is really awesome and definitely not a scam. 

6) I want to dive into a big pool of coins like Scrooge McDuck

5) I will PERSONALLY taste each coin to make sure it's not actually chocolate money.

4) I have great financial skills- I managed to turn a small loan of £1,000,000 from my parents into a depop business worth £40!!

3) I will redistribute the wealth to the masses. 

2) I want to spend all of our money on novelty slippers for the society. That would be so funny haha.

1) I promise I won't steal all of the money. Embezzlement is a funny word, but a serious crime. And I would never do that. 

Maryam Badghisi

Hi, name is Maryam and I have been the interim treasurer for the Cheese Grater Magazine this year! I have been handling the finances since the beginning of this academic year, therefore, I already know what to do if I were to become the treasurer officially. 

Furthermore, I was president of the magazine last year! I was also the graphics editor in first year. I think all of these positions now make me a suitable candidate for being the treasurer this year. 

Robert Delaney

I’m Rob, I’m hopeless with my own money but my mam is an accountant so hopefully I’ve inherited something from her 

 

Vote fi me xoxo

Joe Houghton

Hi everyone, I’m Joe. In my time as part of this society I’ve genuinely grown to love Cheese Grater. I love what it stands for, I love the people in it, and I love what we produce (the zines, articles, sketch shows and graphics). I think its something we can all be proud of, and I want to play my part in keeping it all running smoothly. I think the most important thing as Treasurer is to make sure everyone’s voices are being heard and taken seriously, and that everyone feels trusted and respected. If you elect me as your Treasurer, I can promise that I will do just that. (P.S. We’re called Cheese Grater, so a bit of cheesiness seemed only right.)
