Our Campaigning Efforts
Hong Kong
The free-state of Hong Kong has been ravaged by Communist Tyranny. Police brutality there has rocked the world and struck fear in students and staff at LSE, who are residents and neighbours to Hong Kong.
The LSE SU Hayek Society has stood in solidarity with the pro-democracy activists in Hong Kong, and will continue to do so.
Opposing the Beef Ban
We believe in Consumer Choice. The LSE SU Beef Ban motion narrowly passed. It seeks to ban beef being served in the LSE Canteens and lobbying efforts to ban all animal products sold at LSE.
This is fundamentally an authoritarian and knee-jerk reaction. We are lobbying for a referendum to undo this damaging, patronising, and illogical ban.
The Hayek Statue
F.A.Hayek was a Professor of Economics at the LSE between 1931 and 1950, escaping the fascist tyranny of Germany which had forced Hayek from his cosmopolitan home in Vienna.
His immense and positive legacy on economics, politics, sociology, psychology, and philosophy should be commemorated at the place where he wrote his seminal work, The Road to Serfdom (1944), at the LSE.
