Agreed. It would still be nice though, just for once, if we the membership were not on the receiving end of a parent/child routine by the BACC. We had it for years under the previous incumbents and now sadly despite such promise are seeing it again. I certainly believed that the membership needed a slightly more upfront approach with the company but it would appear that the new lot are all mouth and no trousers.

The unedifying infighting is a sad thing to behold but not enormously surprising given the complete volte face just performed.
