Britain for Europe

Notes from teleconference meeting on Sunday 28 Jan

Exciting stuff! Thanks for reporting back, Claire.

Some more notes from a further teleconference yesterday Sun 4 Feb. Hopefully clears up some confusion over the GCG announcement.

I'm adding Alan's notes here of the teleconf with Chuka Umuna 12 Feb - he has already posted them on a separate thread.

I am attending the next Britain for Europe meeting this Saturday 24 Feb in Bristol. If you have any particular questions/issues you would like me to ask then post them here. I will do my best to raise them, however the agenda was quite full last time and there was not much time for AOB.

Just to keep you all up to date, the voting for the Chair and Vice chairs is going to start on Sunday 25 March, a bit later than planned. I am going to try to work something out on Loomio so we can as a group exercise our votes.

Notes from meeting on Saturday 25 Feb. Very positive. Sub-groups please note your actions.

Thanks Claire

Just an update on the Britain for Europe Council Elections. There were no candidates who wished to run against Tom Brufatto, the current Chair, so we just have to vote for the Vice Chair. I have set up a decision on Loomio and put the candidate's details there too. Voting is optional, I may remind you but not chase you, and the poll closes on Monday at 11pm. This gives me time to sort out any issues eg a tie, before I have to cast our joint vote before 8pm Thursday 8th March. Any questions, please ask below.

No one as yet has cast their vote. Can I check everyone can find/see the vote on Loomio? It is under 'decisions'. I can see it when I log in. It's going to close at 11pm on Monday.

I can't see it under 'Decisions'.

Can you try again now? I only cast my vote a few mins ago - maybe I have to go first before others can?

Right, I've re-done the vote - basically set it up again from scratch because it seemed not to belong to a group. Hopefully everyone can see it now!

I've voted now, thanks.

A reminder to vote before 11pm tomorrow Tuesday if you want for the Vice Chair of Britain for Europe.

Results from BfE on council make up following recent election;
