Point me to the decision made by the GA on running a LQFB? I don't
recall one.

did you check it was SPECIFICALLY for that reason, or are you inferring
a mandate? Should I go look through the video and see what your campaign
was (I sure don't remember your promise)? If it contains anything more
than a promise to enact a non-binding LQFB can you call it a
vote/decision on that? If that was your intent, now it's been enacted,
will you step down your position?

Other things MORE binding, that the board (including you) have not done

- - Holding the next PPI GA outside Europe (to the point of definitive
statements by the board on this, rather than a throwaway line)

- - Having a CoA (it's been 4 months since they all resigned, and you,
individually, or as a group have yet to do anything about it)

So how's about working on what you SHOULD do, rather than what you WANT
to do.

In search of truth (and accountability)
Andrew
