Start of NEC meeting
Apologies: John Barron
Minutes of last meeting approved.
Election date, still expecting May 6th election.
Manifesto progress - it's out!
Merchandising, still waiting on Andys supplier, taking longer than it should. Someone has gone away and ordered some badges. Swedish supplier moving forwards slowly.
Some interest in the party banner from the Strathclyde folks, Andy is finding out how much to get another one made. Current banner is being sent to Graham tomorrow.
Action: Andy will find out the details and pass them on.
All candidates were ratified by the membership. We need to do a press release on this.
At this stage, we announce that we can't afford all the candidates, John Barron will be prioritising. We need more money now!
Action: Peter and John to organise this.
Conference call tomorrow with Peter Brett, John Barron and Philip Hunt to organise/talk about the candidates and constituencies.
Action: Peter will organise this.
Candidate profiles on website. We'd like to be able to present the PPCs on the website. Tom reckons a few days to get profiles live given content. Would be good to get some details of local issues they're interested in on these pages too.
Action: Tom will contact the PPCs to get the content.
Mailing list for all candidates, and email addresses for all candidates.
Action: Tom will set this up.
Richard Mollet (BPI/Labour candidate) has been quoted at 200:1 odds by Ladbrooks, Andy and Graham have been quoted at 250:1 odds. Interesting times.
Miah has taken ownership of the web hosting account details for the time being.
Bank account - Miah has made some enquiries and we have a way forward on this. Andy will write to the co-op requesting a change of treasurer tomorrow. It's likely that there will be a few letters back and forth before this is finalised.
