It should be up soon, so you will be able to check out yourself soon.
================================================== ===
Cassie - Alan England (someone you may know) was tasked with a number of things to improve the party.
For some reason he chose not to do this work, instead he insisted in arguing with fellow NC members.
You might like to have a word with Alan England, to find out why he was such a disruptive NC member ?

Note the phraseology so beloved of proprietors - "tasked"!!!
Some inconvenient facts for you Steven Uncles:
1. First rule of management: you cannot make someone responsible for something over which they do not have authority!
2. I proposed producing an annual report, for which I would have required help because I did not attend the AGM in 2006, but was opposed by another creditor, Michael Cassidy - a name not unknown here I would imagine. [I am in a position to send copies of the relevant emails.]
3. Preparation of an annual budget as required by Rule 10.8 is clearly the Treasurer's task and would spring naturally from his duty to "present to annual conference" the financial statements specified in Rule 10.7.
Any more obfuscations you wish to dream up?
Here's another inconvenient fact for you. I wrote to Robin Tilbrook on the 6th September and asked him for "2. The Annual Report in which the NC accounts for its stewardship of the EDP during the year ended 31 December 2006 to EDP members at the 2007 AGM"
His written reply was "You also cannot have a written annual report because that is not, as you know, the way that the report is done, which is
simply orally at the AGM. The English Democrats is not a bureaucracy and there is no legal or moral requirement for it to become one!". This means that each year a written report is not produced for dissemination to all members, and only those members present at the AGM will hear the annual report. Moreover, there is no record for members, particularly new members to refer to.
Consistent with a number of important deceptions practised by the EDP's principle creditors, you Mr Uncles are attempting to obscure the reality with your accusations and feeble attempts to shift responsibility, and at the same time you are revealing your embarrassment about these deficiencies.
You can operate the EDP as you wish within the law, if that is your only guiding principle, but I do take extreme exception at being misled. Indeed, I believe there is a moral requirement, if not a legal one, for members to be kept properly informed, especially those serving on the NC and, therefore, jointly and severally responsible for a number of decisions.
