Party Democracy - ASAP
The following is being circulated among party members this evening. It is a plea from Alan Eastwood for an early party conference and election of officials, which as a founding party member I wholeheartedly endorse. The attachment "Following the Election" will be posted shortly:

Dear Colleagues,
I attach my paper 'Following the election' This is NOT intended to be the last word but a suggestion for a way forward.
But what I do believe we urgently require is an EARLY Annual General Meeting. I would also seek support for that Annual General Meeting to be held in the Midlands (the centre of the Country) and for our HQ to be moved there.
We have NO elected officials and we must not be likened to ukip which prevaricated when many branches wished for a leadership election, VERITAS Must be open and honest in its dealings.
We have unelected people making decisions in all our names which must stop. The membership must be allowed to express themselves and elect their officers as soon as possible and certainly not in the Autumn.
I would ask for your support to call on Robert Kilroy Silk, our leader, to call an Annual General Meeting at which the elections for officers take place in Late JUNE 2005 in the Midlands.
The website veritasparty-southwest.com is receiving suggested motions which we could put to whomsoever Robert asks to organise the annual general meeting. May I ask you to consider motions you believe your Branch would support.
May I ask you to organise your Branch into requesting our leader to call the AGM in Late June 2005.May I also suggest that as Branches have the only elected people within Veritas, that Robert is requested to form a ConferenceArrangements Committee from Chairmen of Branches
to take this party forward.
Contact me at aeastwood@onetel.net and please pass this email to any member who may not be on email.Please ensure that everyone is aware of this call please.
Let us get started on the long journey united behind ELECTED officials who will have the full support of the Country.
Regards to you all.
Alan Eastwood.OBE.
