I am in the process of sending a letter to all BAGSD branch secretaries which I have asked them to kindly pass on to their members. However, some of the e-mail addresses I have seem to be out of date so I will post copies out - in case this takes some time the letter can be downloaded from our website.

I cannot understand BAGSD's not informing their members of such an important issue. Other clubs are sending letters to all their members, so why not BAGSD's!!!!
The old scenario is they have too many members is nonsense, after all they have over £150,000 in the bank and a Secretary who receives a salary. It is obvious they do not consider their members and are opting to take the route of going out to Secretary's of the branches. The majority of BAGSD members are obedience and will not be interested in the KC letter, so perhaps this is BAGSD's way of opting out. Perhaps you are right Penny, it is a fore gone conclusion.

It may be a foregone conclusion in the eyes of some of the EC - but if that is the way they intend to go, there will be opposition to it from us, as BAGSD members, and other BAGSD members. Everyone is accountable. Thank you for seeing that Shirley is very passionate about the breed in respect of the KC`s ambiguous letter, and that she is also very passionate about fairness and the good of the breed. Mo

Shirley please don't hold your breath,but we live in hope that BAGSD will act democratically.

I believe Pacosbear placed something on another thread pointing to a notice on the BAGSD website suggesting the vote will be one vote per branch rather than one vote per member. This means of course the vote will resemble that of a Parlilamentary Constituency vote which as we all know is NOT BASED ON PROPORTIONAL REPRESENTATION. Thus we may have a situation here where only 20% of the members decide the future path the other 90% have to follow and look at the Goverment Ministers these votes keep putting in power. Be it seeking Weapons of Mass Destruction or Expense accounts, most cant lie straight in bed but they can tell a bare faced lie!!!

I have asked that he will put this in writing to us, considering the time it has taken to get this fantastic decision
I have also asked how the votes that come in will be counted, and by whom and I have suggested at the very least that to be seen to be correctly handled..... John Ward who is a very well respected member of our breed community, an an other member of the EC should take the count
BAGSD have been slow. They must now be very aware that they have convinced us all that it was going to be a closed shop - and they now need to be completely transparent about the vote count. I will update when I have finished my conversation, as unfortunately I had to take an urgent call from my mobile whilst we were talking on this very vital and important subject.
