The University of Southampton Students' Union, otherwise known as SUSU, Union Southampton or "Us.", has repeatedly been critisised for being out of touch with students, unable to properly engage with its members and focused on overly commercial goals. Under the Union's Articles of Association, a referendum may resolve to dissolve the Union (Article 36.1.1). The effect of this, therefore, would be to wipe the slate clean and start again, allowing us to form a real students' union, which puts its students first and foremost in everything that it does.
