Peter Wilson, having a sook now - "i'll reflect on the tape" RE recriminations against members who have spoken out

Who you gonna sue for defamation Peter? The members?

Proxy harvesting, wins again?

[deaneus]

I don't know who this student is, but she's absolutely giving it to the Board about being a student

[deaneus]

Peter Wilson not ruling out suing members.

Says it all really.

I've been watching this feed from 5.30pm. The whitewash by the current board continues.
The refusal to disclose where the proxies came from was the last straw.

I'd also like to know how many of those came from the same ip address. Link would have that info.

I watched about 20 minutes or so earlier in the evening.

Unfortunately it seems to me that the day is lost - and was lost long ago.

Despite fighting the good fight, quite clearly, the deck is stacked and we are not going to achieve any meaningful change.

This is what happens when you have a disinterested and disengaged membership - you get a board that can do whatever it wants - and does.

Quite simply the choice we all now have is to either live with it and remain a member or don't.

I'll probably just stay a member, with the full knowledge that the organisation doesn't actually represent me, quite simply because the transactions costs of change are too high.

[deaneus]

I'd also like to know how many of those came from the same ip address. Link would have that info.

The same Singaporean IP address?

Good luck with that.

I am so sorry this is turning out to be pointless despite everyones massive efforts to the contrary. it is like betting against a casino, everything the board does is legal and funded and everybody else well.......

it speaks volumes and is almost hilarious they will not do squat about the previous board/staff but are reserving their rights against those who have spoken at the agm

also hilarious they will not disclose like a publicly listed company but the rules for calling a meeting for a publicly listed company are suddenly the right ones to adopt

the only question now is how many members they will lose at the next renewal because I know a lot who stayed just to vote at this farcical meeting


also, unfortunately to those who keep mentioning about including things in "in the black" - my copies go in the bin every month in the same plastic they arrive in. as they have done so for the last 10+ years. I would opt out of receiving it if cpaa would be smart enough to provide the option and save the money and the environment

thanks again to Brett and the countless others. it could be worse, we might still have Alex and the meeting could be in the Bahamas

[cpasteve]

You can opt out of in the black. I did. Just email them and ask.

[deaneus]

Why does this feel like an enormous stitch up?

Oh, because it was?
