News Column: Cambridge conspiracies and Sidney knifed in the back

Week 6 is here.

Student’s still haven’t done anything particularly interesting. The most exciting part of the week was a pigeon flying into an exam. But nonetheless, as with everything, The Tab is attempting to make something good out of the banal with this week’s news column.

Cambridge citizens conspire to stop students working

Then two hours later the drumming was replaced by a delightful man with not so delightful bagpipes #justcambridgeproblems.

Knifed in the back

(my view – cutlery yes, food NO)

Et tu brute
