If reports of very lucrative payments are true (which unbelievably no members seem to actually know for sure), then you have a justification for a very serious resource guarding battle. Some might not want to give up that kind of income stream without a fight.

It is now beginning to smell. Right there is probably the nub of this ridiculous dispute. It is time for the rules to be observed and BASSA's accounts being made available. Thoughts are inevitably wandering and it is incumbent upon BASSA to produce them for inspection - last week would not be too soon. It cannot be a problem to open the accounts for inspection if there is nothing to hide. I am not suggesting for one moment there is but doubt is rising.
