Questions deleted from Gloucester Labour's Facebook page

Clearly, your email was not addressed to me, in fact I don't think it was addressed to anyone who has a clue what went on in Gloucester during the election campaign. As for 'help that poured into the City from all over the UK during the GE', it's hard to know if you should be more ashamed that this help was considered necessary, or that it proved completely ineffectual, and unrepresentative of the equally shameless hyping of the party's chances in the constituency.

You can save me the trouble (and the stress) of attending the next AMM by answering these questions (from a member) that presumably led you to ban me from the local party's Facebook page:

'I have questions for the next AMM, one of which is, can I have the minutes for the *last* two AMMs from Ellis Fincham, as he's ignored previous requests for them?

'Along with that, proper details of the constituency party's finances, glossed over in the only minutes I've ever received, and full disclosure of its role in Gloucester Climate Action Partnership. As a 'founder member' of that group, and the party's treasurer, Angela Porter can field both those questions.

'Transparency is the only way Gloucester Labour is 'going forward'. Any other direction, you'll be going without me, but not before I have those answers.


'Oh, and one more question, will the party update the membership on any successes, or just progress, following the 'Community Organising' initiative kicked off in January, as it now seems to be conducted entirely behind closed doors? Louie Herbert?'


I definitely anticipate a genuinely exhaustive description of our local party's financial situation, since you clearly delayed leaving Messenger House until the GE was concluded, and any additional expense incurred was thus wasted.

I assume we'll have to wait for the AMM to hear of any resignations?
