Tony Bennett quits Veritas

In answer to presterjohn, I sent this note out by e-mail to VERITAS members on Thursday last (12 May):
"Dear VERITAS members,
I wish to infom you that on Tuesday I gave formal notice to Robert KIlroy-Silk and Acting Party Secretary Michael Harvey that I have decided to resign my membership of VERITAS, for personal reasons
Tony Bennett
01279 635789"

In answer to those who have 'phoned here asking for more details, I have explained that I spent time helping to found and establish the party, worked for its development and stood in the General Election as a candidate.
All of this has taken much time away from my main role whch is to deal effectively with Robert's constituency correspondence and enquiries and indeed the correspondence, e-mails and telephone calls which come in from all over the country every time he appears on TV or radio. Quite a backlog has inevitably built up.
I decided that the additional work of being a Party member and dealing with enquiries and indeed representations from Party members as well was too much. Plus many enquiries come in here for VERITAS, either via Robert's website or through Directory Enquiries; I can now truthfully say I am not in VERITAS and direct the enquiries elsewhere
