It was your second time in attendance last Sunday, wasn't it?
I was at Sunday’s AGM and in my recollection of events, the only thing I can deduce from the election results is that you were resoundingly rejected both as Treasurer and Committee of Management member.
Well given the CoM has the second-least democratic voting method that is not surprising. In a democratic voting system I would have been easily elected. Not that is a good reason to pick one voting system over another.
As for treasurer, I know that I received a majority of votes from those who turn up at least twenty times a year, and almost zero from those who turn up less than three times per annum. What does that suggest to you?
I wonder if that had anything to do with your negativity and lack of respect towards other members of the Church, as demonstrated by your loud sniggering and side-comments when others had the floor and were trying to voice their point of view?
I doubt that made any difference at all. Certainly if a candidate for treasurer says that the organisation like this doesn't need a budget, I will am likely to have a little chuckle.
I am sure the Unitarian Church will continue to thrive with or without your input.
Are you? It certainly had reached a very low point by the end of 2010. In those two years membership has doubled and attendance has gone to 150% of that figure.
Now, would you care to make some predictions on what the next two years will be like?
Oh, and finally, I don’t think any Church would benefit from members who claim to be open-minded and yet use blogs to attack others by negatively accusing them of belonging to specific political factions, e.g. “with a significant victory to the Marxist-Lenninist faction (yes, this steeple-jacking really did happen and the same people are still in control), who were trotted out for their annual vote” – your reaction smacks to me of being that of a sore-loser... wouldn’t you say?
I don't mind losing elections at all. If I did, I wouldn't be a radical. I run for positions to introduce ideas and change systems.

As for the MLs, are you denying this is true?
Have a nice day,
