do you think we would all benifit from one union ?

[Guest spin cycle]

what would worry me about the scheme is 1/ the centralisation might make it even less in touch with grassroots than the rpra allready is. 2/ the full cost savings might not materialise if further tiers of fulltime management were needed (eg regional managers reporting to national management ) and if allowed to become a self perpetuating beuracracy....now that would be costly! 3/ 'divide and rule' was the old adage but if the new organistion fell under defras spell they would be running the sport...the rpra did a good job on avian flu but it needed a bilco wake up call finally 4/ if the new organisation maintained the current lack of transparency in its work lots of members would feel even less enfranchised. i've voted no (sorry) but i'm willing to be converted
