STUDENTS at New College in Swindon have held their own election to find a new student union president.

And the winner was 17-year-old Bruno Pileggi from Grange Park.

Bruno, who received 294 votes, said; "It was quite a landslide so I'm very humbled.

"It's a great responsibility and I realise it's going to be a lot of work, but I know I'll be able to put a lot of time and commitment into the job and represent the students as best I can."

Bruno will replace departing president Natalie Waylen.

One of Bruno's aims is to lower prices in the college restaurant and to keep a healthy range of food on the menu.
