I don't understand why the committee has adopted such a confrontational stance. The SGM is great opportunity for the executive to understand the consensus view from the membership (people surely?) and move on accordingly.

Instead the committee has chosen to release a newsletter which is highly partial in its content, and issued an ultimatum that if they are found to have acted wrongly then they will all fall on their swords and "TLERA and THE ESTATE will be at risk". Ahem.

I don't know which way the meeting will go, but if mistakes have been made, then we can be big enough to accept that and make changes, and not get melodramatic about it. Most supporters of the nursery are also supporters of the work of the committee in general - its just their approach to this issue that needs challenging.
