WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!?!
I looked under my bed at uni the other day and found my CF 4 Democracy Tshirt left over from conference remembering the whole fiasco with very mixed feelings. If I’m honest I felt a tad embarrassed that we made such a stand because a few weeks ago I learnt [...]

Dear dear God.
2) A flexible system for Area support
To reduce the rigid structure of Area Chairman by allowing flexibility
in region.
Will these reforms devalue AC’s?
No. These reforms give more autonomy, influence and control over the
local structure to the members in the region. They increase the value
of locally elected executives and place authority closer to the
members.
WHAT COMPLETE [...]

So we were led to believe the reforms had been altered and ACs were safe. Apparently not.
Area Chairmen are “optional”, subject to the discretion of their regionals who incidentally no longer have the one man one vote system applying to them. Very little change. No consultation. Completely unacceptable. I’m also massively bored of discussing reform (especially [...]

REFORM REFORM REFORM
Filed Under CF Reform, NME, Surrey | 3 Comments
As we are all very aware, painfully perhaps, there has been a great deal of talk about reforms recently.
In my opinion the problems are not merely the reforms themselves but the way it has been handled; the NME allowed a leak of information and then failed to set the membership straight. The rumours keep changing, the [...]
