    Congrats to TCD and Kings Inns.

    Is it true that one of the UCD teams was from a Commerce Society?

  2. Yes I believe one of the teams was from some sort of a commerce society (certainly that seems to be the case from the Irish Times Article)

  4. Given the explosion of debate videos on youtube in the last year or so I would expect it will appear soon. I have a search set up in youtube for debating videos and if it comes up I'll post the details.
