mm_flynn - don't disagree with anything you've said.
My outpouring was a response to some earlier posts:
So what victory retaining the IMCR? To me that would be winning a battle and losing the war
I have no objection (indeed fully support) the push for an accessible PPL IR - as long as the IMCR isn't bartered away in the process. I regard it as a shame that the IMCR and PPL IR seem to have become linked - meaning there is now disagreement about what constitutes "victory". It seems to me it would have been much better had:
- Getting an accessible PPL IR
- Retaining the IMCR in an acceptable form for existing holders
had not been linked in the first place.
