The more burning issue is what one gets for the £60 club fee !!! still waiting after 3 years to get any tangible benefit
Use of the building for a start - the flying school doesn't own the building, it leases briefing space from the club & shares the bills. Also free landing cards for club members at a variety of smaller fields around Scotland.

The current politics seems to have been taken a step further than normal, detracting from some good flying. Politics always seems to have that effect...
