    There is something underhand going on, I just can't figure out what.
    I don't think there's anything underhand.

    I just think egos are getting in the way of reason.

          This.

          I can appreciate that there was a huge amount of effort put into the rebrand and strategy... it's the "don't worry your pretty little head" condescension, the silence and lack of details from the BoD, and the accusation that it's CUK members stirring it up for the sake of it that's p1ssing me off at the mo.

            Fair enough. You don't find the use of fonts and highlighting somewhat erratic?

              You are not getting any better at this, your reply should have been 'Look at the time the OP posted the original open letter!'

                As posted in the other place - Gilmours attitude stinks.

                And I've posted my concerns there, so not a CUK freeloading scumbag

                  Accusing CUK members of stirring things up is just a smokescreen and an attempted distraction, that fact that the alarm bells were rung on CUK and the valid concerns over the attitudes of IPSE have been raised over on CUK is actually an opportunity. Refusal to engage even on the IPSE forums over valid concerns which are a mainstay of why the organisation existed is simply the IPSE leadership painting a fresh target on their own foreheads.

                    I'd guess that it was a mobile device at an airport while flying somewhere else. I don't know how you change the font even if I wanted to, but I reckon my tablet could do it for me

                      Indeed. Hopefully, clear heads will prevail, because the case for an FLC needs to be made properly and, at the very least, with a degree of respect to existing members.
