Hi Max,

I did not know Trish was going to be in attendance and was not authorised to act as local party rep, but please do not make an issue of it. She will have acted in good faith and I will ensure it does not happen again. Having said that, I have never been formally adopted as local party rep myself and have just assumed that role when I have been at WGPC meetings inn the past.
   
Best wishes,
 Andy

  Andy - thanks for the hint.  Chris Rose replied he'd said to contact Jon Nott and that it's a matter for am Elections Tribunal after the event.  Implies Pippa was out of order in seeking John to suspend the election.  You could ask John for Jon's advice.
  The amended Minutes circulated by Ann Were have Trish down as "Local Party Rep (Bridgend)";  these reps are supposed to be elected positions (with a seat on the Council) and she'd not been on the WGPC list.  So was Trish nominated/elected from any branch meeting, which you communicated to Ann, or was it first said at the meeting? Not that I've anything against her - as there were no other Local Party reps, the meeting was not quorate.  
  Are you in Cardiff next week, with time to meet and chat? 
Best wishes / Max

Subject: Re: Members Newsletter - Pippa's demand on WGPC for E-mail to Members

Pippa has been rather slow with her late-night demand (00:21) for an email
“to all WGP members… underlining that none of these allegations have any substance whatsoever.”  
While she may feel persecuted, general advice on e-mailing says desist from rushing out demands late at night, but reflect in the cold light of day.  

I gave Pippa a preview of the letter to-the-Editor and opportunity to respond to it nearly 2 weeks ago. Her new answers summarised by "None of the allegations are true" don't seem to respond to its specific points.  At Ann Were's suggestion, I printed those points in full from Pippa's reply to Penny Kemp (ext comms).  

The total in the Newsletter might or might not work to Pippa's advantage in Euro-list electoral terms. But as second issue, what are the "allegations" in it she is wanting the WGPC to declare have "no substance"? 

Perhaps Pippa didn't know of Toucan System's relations with Thales weapons company, or they’ve developed since she quit as Director in 2003. But is there "no substance" in these relations, on top of the unconvincing “one keyboard” story?After Pippa left Encrypta Electronics, she was still part-owner of this family business, a company she'd started. Maybe just her partner/ex-husband didn't consult her on the work for AWRE Aldermaston. If there's "no substance", did Pippa revoke her part-ownership of Encrypta prior to taking on the AWRE contract and the company's end in 2003? 

Pippa accuses me of “wild allegations about (her)” at the Cardiff UNA meeting. Yet that was a briefing on Thales 'Warthog' military vehicles, with a subcontract from Abercycnon-based AB Electronics backed by the Welsh Government. My question to Pippa asked if she could help with inside information, seeing that Encrypta used to subcontract much work to AB Electronics. Pippa's depicting as “wild allegations” a request to help find more information can only raise suspicions.

As bankruptcy is a common way for businesses to walk away from debts, after moving their assets elsewhere, I see the question of bankruptcy of the family business Encrypta in 2003 as quite legitimate. I'm unaware that it's been raised before, not in answers to Penny Kemp of last summer.

However, Pippa writes:
When I was first elected as leader, Penny Kemp (ext comms) asked me for a full breakdown of everything she might need to know. A full disclosure was given, and WGPC was copied in at the time.
This means in early 2012, which I and other new members would not have seen.  So could it be circulated again?

Hwyl / Max
