P.S. Membership Fee - yawn! How trusting are you?

Turkey Farming

Since its inception, the CTC required the approval of its members at an AGM to any change in the club membership fee.

As you will have seen, the new cycling charity thinks that is a bit rich and is very keen to scrap the inconvenience of member approval.

You are therefore asked:

Do you agree:

that the Trustees should be able to change the membership fee without the approval of the membership at a general meeting?

Yawn. You do not have to do anything. Leave it to the charitocrats. I'm sure they know what is best for us.

Do turkeys vote for Christmas, or do they leave it to the turkey farmer to decide?

The review of the articles of association also recommended that the one of the trustees should be appointed Treasurer, as this is regarded as good practice for charities, but this was not put into the new draft. Would it create too much clarity and accountability I wonder?
