Sat12May - LEEDS - AGM of UK 9/11 Truth Campaign

Annie

I writing to announce that the AGM of the 9/11 Truth Campaign (Britain and Ireland) will be held in Leeds between 12pm and 6pm on 12th May 2007 (venue TBA).

The purpose of the AGM is to report back on the last year, agree the accounts, and elect the Steering Committee for the following year.

The Steering Committee is currently:

Chair: Ian Crane (standing down)
Vice-Chairs: Justin Walker (North and Political Campaigning), Andrew Baker (South and Events Co-ordination), and Morgan Stack (Ireland).
Treasurer: Belinda McKenzie
Secretary: Annie Machon

Under the terms of the constitution, the new Steering Committee will consist of people elected to the above positions, as well as people elected to represent each regional group.

Please email or PM me with nominations for the Steering Committee. The closing date for nominations is 1st May 2007.

The AGM will also be a chance to discuss policy and strategy for the following year.

Each group can send two representatives with voting rights to the AGM. Please email or PM me once this has been decided.

The AGM will be hosted by the West Yorkshire truth groups. They are also arranging a Truth Festival for the rest of the weekend for other activists who would like to take the opportunity to meet people from around the country. Once again, I should be grateful if people could contact me if they wish to attend, so that West Yorks has some idea of numbers planning to attend.

I include below the relevant sections of the Constitution for information.

Regards

Annie

Supporters shall be deemed to be those who support the general aim of the Campaign and have registered this commitment in a way that is recognisable by others .

Annie, I have so much respect for you and your beliefs, and have indeed met you in glasgow twice (first time with you and David at St Stephens church and the second time at William Rodriguez at Glasgow Uni... At the William Rodriguez event, You were on your mobile in the entrance of the building (after your introduction speech) and I was out having a cigarette, due to the smoking ban in Scotland of course, and when I came back in I just gave you a wink and approving nod... you gave me a wee nod back... Anyway... It is hard to express this communication in text, but I know you would know me to see me!)

Anyway, I'm diverging...

Annie (or someone from W Yorks) - Please could you just clarify what you mean by 'Truth festival', ie what does the local group have in mind for the weekend? If it's films and speakers etc then I'd like to go. (But if it was only some kind of dancey thing like wot I know these young 'uns are into, I won't bother to make the trek!)

I believe a room's been booked for the AGM. I think there may well be some social event for the evening to follow, maybe even with some live music.
It has been mooted that the speakers who are going to be in town for the AGM, might like to do a presentation on a 'truth' topic or topics, in the days preceding, or Sunday following,probably a movie or 2 shown. An attempt to link up with other groups who have in some way sympathetic aims - anti-war/pro-peace, anti-ID pro-freedom, - to get involved with their own versions of 'truth'.
And, yes, maybe even a bit of dancing somewhere, but not in fields or mosh pits.

Thanks dh - hope you can make it the Sunday for some presentations, so the non-conference weekenders can make it to something edumakashional. Cool

Well, things are still being sorted Madge. Looks like there might be some kind of educational thing on the Friday evening, Saturday evening's proving 'difficult' at the moment, Sunday evening's looking like a musical blast of the sort you might disdain. Sunday afternoon might be a good time for a presentation of the type you seek.I'm thinking of either the more technical or the more esoteric stuff What do you think? I'll try and push for this if you want. I realise some people might be constrained tightly to the w/e. Why would you avoid the AGM itself? In this movement even the most boring of business type meetings can prove entertaining in themselves. There's other things to do in Leeds on a Saturday afternoon though. Shopping or something....

Ideas are now being firmed up for the weekend Friday to Sunday, so forgive my scattered replies. Uselesseater and Anthony B are doing the leg work on this, and it's beginning to take shape. So I would advise making a space in the diary from Fri 11th evening to Sunday late at least if you possibly can

dh and the other organisers - thanks for all your efforts, I'm sure it'll be a great weekend.

Re the AGM - I (mis)understood from Annie’s post above that only 2 people could go from each group. I guess that means only 2 who can vote, then. I had imagined the AGM would be a dry-as-dust affair but if you think there may be something of interest I’ll see if the agenda appears…

Re presentation(s) – Sunday afternoon does sound ideal – not sure what you mean by ‘esoteric’ but personally I’m especially interested in the ‘taboo’ subjects such as whether or not hijacked planes were at all involved, what might have caused the total destruction of the towers (mini-nukes? beam weapons? etc). A debate or presentation of alternative theories would be grand, IMO, if anyone was up for it.

Hiya,

Sorry to add to the ever growing list of questions regarding the AGM weekend!

Can I just ask what the purpose of events outside of the AGM meeting are? In other words, are the events going to be open to the general public to attend or restricted to members/supporters of the Truth Campaign?

Also, I too would like some clarification on the AGM as MadgeB asks! Are any members of the Truth Campaign able to attend, or only those with voting rights?

Thanks, and sorry again for another question when you are in the busy process of organising the weekend! Well done and thanks also to the West Yorkshire group for organising the weekend.

Sixy.

Hi

Can I just ask everyone to let me know who will be representing thier groups at the AGM? The W Yorks group is doing wonderful work in organising this weekend, but it would help them enormously if they had an idea of numbers i) for delegates and ii) for activists who want to attend the Truth Festival. There are some free beds available, on a first come first served basis, but priority will be given to delegates who need to be there.

Can I also remind you that nominations for the Committee need to reach me by cop 1 May 2007. Please either PM me or email me.

Regards

Annie

Thanx for that Paul.

Our AGM is one of our key events for the year yet theres no information yet on venue details and its not even posted on the calender here and I can find no mention on our official website (www.911truthcampaign.net) about it.

At the Lancaster Truth campaign public showing of 911 Press for Truth we were asked by a young lady who is studying in Leeds were the AGM was being held as she expressed an interest in attending this as well as the Truth events surrounding the AGM.

As I was unable to answer the queries I referred her to this website and advised that she follow the thread for details as they became available, including hopefully a map/directions.

Yes well just to be clear it's at the Adelphi, Leeds on 12th May starting around noon

A veggie buffet meal will be available

Map

It'll actually more likely to start around 1 and continue to maybe 6, allowing time for a workshop or two at the end. Another event may be arranged for the evening, dependent on finding a venue, and note that there are events on the Friday and Sunday.

This looks great - should be a good weekend. Well done to the Yorkshire groups for organising all this.

Moderators, can you merge this thread with the earlier AGM one, so that everyone can see the purpose and terms of the AGM?

Many thanks

Annie
