Lobbying for those who are still serving, and not members of the society, should not be one of their roles.
I have become a real admirer of the RBL, which I had previously thought of, as a bit of a retirement job club and talking shop. It has proved its credentials time and time again and we should put our faith in one big hitting body that has a reputation such as the one it has. I see the appeal of diversification, but I wonder if we don't spread ourselves a little thin sometimes.
