    United Kingdom: ME Association governance issues

    Interestingly, the email I had with the AGM agenda specifically links to the Chairman's Report 2023. Wonder if this is a [deliberate] mistake.

    United Kingdom: ME Association governance issues

    I guess, if the motion is not included and none of the BoT is for re-election, other than signing off the last AGM minutes, there is nothing for anyone to vote on. Would be interesting if anyone here is a member and able to attend online, what actually goes on.

    According to Twitter, the motion will not be included in the AGM..subject to further discussion. This whole thing just gets murkier and murkier.

    Nothing to see here, basically is how I take it all. ETA; A closed shop.

    United Kingdom: ME Association governance issues

    So, in the details of the AGM, no reference to election/re-election of BoT, no mention of the minor difficulties they have been having of late, not the motion put forward, BAU then.. Also, not open to no -members (AfME for all their faults, had an AGM open to anyone and it was a pretty well run...

    Un-bloody-believable. They are going to try to ride this out, despite over 1000 people adding their names to a very measured letter.

    United Kingdom: ME Association governance issues

    Thanks for keeping the focus on this, it’s a really important aspect of what is happening right now. Sadly though, not surprised by the radio silence on this as everything else contentious right now. Wonder, if you have the energy, whether a direct email to them would be helpful, such that...

    United Kingdom: ME Association governance issues

    Seeing a post like this from CS makes me think they are just going to try to ride this Riley article out, business as usual..preach to the converted about all the work they do.

    United Kingdom: ME Association governance issues

    You would think so, but the longer this goes on without a meaningful response beyond his sorry, not sorry statement, the more this makes me picture a scene at the MEA offices; Riley frothing at the mouth shouting ‘I will not be cancelled by this woke, angry mob’ with spittle flying everywhere...

    United Kingdom: ME Association governance issues

    Agree, it does seem odd. Maybe it’s a sign of some much bigger inner turmoil where none of the other trustees wants be associated with this mess so get a staff member to send a polite holding message (but of course that’s not how being a trustee is supposed to work). Or, by sending from a...

    Holding email seems to have been received by Alexis re the open letter;

    They may have, but, given the organisation put out the statement it did, they don’t appear to have enough sway or have a critical mass to affect change yet, else they would surely have been at least more conciliatory to the concerns being raised.

    This would be a good way to start rebuilding confidence.

    United Kingdom: ME Association governance issues

    I’m not sure there is an answer to this - which is a valid question and right for you to ask. The current board, by their responses, have so far not demonstrated, outwardly at least, that they understand the problem; why many of us were so upset by what was written and the response. That’s a...

    United Kingdom: ME Association governance issues

    To me, this feels potentially existential for MEA now given the tacit approval by the other trustees for what has been published is the original article, the non-apology and the non-apologies that seem to be going out today. There is such catastrophic damage being done to the reputation that it...

    It looks like it arrived at that station long ago and blew up the train and tracks it got there on.

    Looks like some more sorry not sorry emails landing from MEA to those who complained directly.

    Agreed, this could be existential, an E.L.E. (you may need to have seen Deep Impact for that to make sense)
