THE ELECTION PROCESS OF THE NATIONAL TRUST 2017

HOW THE NATIONAL TRUST MADE A MOCKERY OF THE
ELECTION OF CANDIDATES TO COUNCIL IN 2017.

This year 2017, The National Trust held their AGM at The Steam Room, Swindon. I watched the Webcast of proceedings. The organisation by Jo Cooke, Deputy Secretary, was simply excellent. The Chairman Tim Parker did a great job controlling the AGM in his first year as Chairman. I particularly liked the very fair way he gave Members the chance to ask questions on both sides of the divide. The Directors and Specialist Staff also played their part in replying to questions from the floor.
The Financial results for the year were superb. A great performance by the retiring Director General Dame Helen Ghosh, who is going to be Master of Balliol College Oxford, and her staff.  He Legacy will be a very hard act to follow.Congratulations to everyone at the National Trust, especially the 60,000 Volunteers.

I have been a Member of the National Trust for over 50 years. I love the National Trust, it's diverse Membership and the National Trust Ethos of Conservation. I wanted to play my part to help The Council but it was not meant to be.

Before the AGM, The National Trust had invited its 5 Millions Members to Vote for up to 6 Candidates for Council - the National Trust asks Members of the Council to serve for 3 years -  out of a list of 20 well qualified, impressive, superb Profiles and dedicated Candidates for Council. It was to be a fair and open election BUT the problem was - it was anything but fair and open. 14 of the Candidates,  of which I was one, did not have much of a fair chance. The Election was fixed and biased by the National Trust hierarchy, namely The Nominations Committee.

Why is this ? Is this just sour grapes because I did not get elected ?
Well, you decide. Here are the facts.....

Only some 500 Plus Members of the National Trust out of 5 Million Members bothered to turn up to the AGM in Swindon. A relatively small % of the total Membership. The National Trust must have expected such a low turnout when they booked the Steam room. On the Webcast the room looked so full.  However, every Member had rightly been given the opportunity to vote except many could not be bothered to vote and apathy prevailed.

Deputy Secretary Jo Cooke said - " It is a requirement of The National Trust Constitution that the Nominations Committee makes Recommendations."

Member Raymond Williams says - " Change the Constitution. "

The Nominations Committee selected its favourite 6 Candidates and lists their names in the AGM Booklet which includes the Voting forms and online voting guidelines. In the
 Voting Booklet, the Nominations Committee them recommends that Members vote for their 6 chosen Candidates. Let us be clear what the Nominations Committee does or I should say what it does not do. It does not interview all the Candidates. It does not talk to any of the other 14 Candidates. We do not know what their Terms of Reference were. Who set any Terms ? Were the Trustees involved ?
 What role if any did the Chairman have in the selection process of the 6 Candidates and the composition of the Nominations Committee ?

Deputy Secretary Jo Cooke said - I do not know how the Chairman voted because the vote was in secret." " The Chairman did not have any direct involvement in the selection process of the composition of The Nominations Committee. "

Raymond Williams says - " The Members should have a say. " " The Chairman should have a say since he should know the mood of the Members. "

 Members and Candidates are left in the dark.
What criteria did the Nominations Committee use to select their favourite 6 ?  I wonder ! We will never know.

The other 14 Candidates together with the Profiles of all 20 Candidates were on display in the AGM booklet and online together with their replies to Members questions. How many Members bothered to read them ?

As a result, the Nominations Committee tries to bias the result of the election by promoting their favourite 6 Candidates. How they reached their selection nobody knows ! It is all done in secret.
I think that they have succeeded in introducing bias into the Election  and skewed the Election results.

5 of the 6 Candidates recommended by the Nominations Committee were elected to Council this year 2017.  They received over 15,000 votes each. One other Candidate got 15,000 votes whilst the other 13 Candidates received from 5,000 - 13,000 votes each. Such was the dramatic impact of the intervention by the Nominations Committee. The pre - chosen 6 received collectively 50% of the total vote of 231,249. 
My case rests !

Only 4.6% of the Total Membership of 5,000,000 bothered to vote in the Election.  
2.3% of the Total membership voted for the chosen 6. 

Deputy Secretary Jo Cooke said - " The numbers voting this year were double those of last year." 

Member Raymond Williams said - " The number of Members voting was still very small. "

The challenge to the National Trust for the future is  - How to attract more Members to Vote in the Election and for or against the Motions ?  It is quite pathetic that so few Members voted.
However, it is the same story in Local Government Elections and to a certain extent in the General Elections.
Apathy is King.

Is the election fair ? NO.   Here is my view ....


The Chairman will obviously use his Proxy votes to build  up votes for the 6 favoured Candidates. He is not likely to vote against his own Staff's recommendations.

Deputy Secretary Jo Cooke said - " There were no Proxy Votes. "

Member Raymond Williams says - " I may be wrong and I am sorry. However, this is a terrible blow to National Trust Democracy.

It would be better if there was a Box on the Ballot Package marked - Proxy. This might broaden the numbers voting and produce a fairer result. But, note my recommendation on how the Proxies should be distributed." " Members would not have wanted to travel long distances to the AGM and spend money on overnight stays. "
" I suggest that consideration should be given to holding the AGM elsewhere, say The Midlands."

The Nominations Committee will attract votes from Members who cannot be bothered to read the Profiles of all 20 Candidates and are likely to vote as per the recommendations of the Nominations Committee.

So, what chance does the other 14 Candidates have ? Not much !

This year there was a big influence on the voting results due to the fact that there were 2 very controversial Motions - For and Against a ban on Trail Hunting on NationalTrust land and For and Against the Plan for the A303 Road under a £1.4 Billion Tunnel past Stonehenge.

This helped to polarise the Votes. Candidates got Votes from some of the 100,000 Members of the Countryside Alliance if they had clearly stated that they agreed with the Countryside Alliance and Candidates got Votes if they disagreed with the A303 Motion. The National Trust urged Members to Vote against each  Motion. This helped to distort the vote. I must admit I took a view that if the activity is legal it is OK. I also voted For the Motion to  stop the A303 Tunnel Plan. As a result, I probably lost a few thousand vital votes.
" C'est la Vie."

I also thought that Question 4 - Ask the Candidates, was a bit ambiguous. It referred  to Stonehenge
and mixed two Motions - Trail Hunting and the A303 Tunnel in the same question 4. There should have been a total of 7 questions and not only  6 Questions.

I also thought that 2 highly emotional Motions should not have been included in the list of questions in the Ask The Candidates list. Some 60, 000 plus Members voted in the 2 Motions and each side urged their Membership to vote for the Candidates who supported their point of view. This skewed the results for each Candidate.

Here is another factor for Members to consider. In the voting for the 2 Motions, there were
" Discretionary Votes." These were votes assigned by Members to the Chairman Tim Parker,
In the Motion against Trail Hunting on National Trust Land, there were 3,460  Discretionary Votes Against the Motion and 2,057 For the Motion. So, the Motion was lost.
Similarly, in the Motion Against the tunnel under the A303, there were 6,710 Discretionary Votes  Against the Motion. Once again, the Discretionary Votes decided the result of the Motion.
Who decided how to allocate the Discretionary Votes ?

The very poor number of the 5 Million Members who voted, also diminishes the validity of the Election.

The National Trust has to change the voting rules in the future according to my view as follows...

1 - Abolish the Nominations Committee. Change the Constitution to do this.

2 - Introduce Proxy Votes next year. This is a leap from normal practice at AGMs but I think in the case of the National Trust, it is badly needed. What is wrong with this if anything ?

3 - Members should have Proxy Votes but  they are allocated in proportion to the Candidates according to their % of the registered National votes distribution. A proportional representation approach. If Candidate X gets 30% of the submitted votes online or on paper, he or she should get 30% of the Proxy vote.
Is this a denial of Democracy ? No. It broadens the Vote abd should produce a better fairer result.

4 - My challenge to the National Trust is......Print my article on your Website to give Members a chance to express their views.
I do not want to submit a Motion for next year's AGM because it take up precious time which could be used to debate more vital subjects. However, my Article needs debate and not pushed into oblivion.

Deputy Secretary Jo Cooke said- " Here is the link to the National Trust AGM website. You can post this on your website EUREKYS. "

Member Raymond Williams said - " I am most grateful to Jo Cooke for her response to my Article. I have made changes as a result of her sensible comments. I appreciate the fact that this subject of The role of the Nominations Committee has been strongly debated in the past. In fact, in recent years a Motion was passed by Members to prevent the Nominations Committee from placing asterisk's  alongside their favoured Candidates names.
 I propose that the National Trust goes one step further and abolishes the Nominations Committee."

5 - This year on the Voting Forms, the National Trust asked Members if they thought that the Recommendations of the Nominations Committee were " helpful ? "
We must be careful interpreting the results. They should have asked...." Do you think that the intervention by the Nominations Committee distorts the Vote and is unfair to all the Candidates ? "


I think that then the National Trust might have fairer election results and every Candidate will have a fair chance of being elected.
 My views are shared with many people including The Christian Voice Journal who states in their recent headline article that the Council Election was fixed.
The Christian Voice - noted for it's Fair Play says:

" Whether anyone is elected does NOT depend one scrap on our votes. That is because the Chairman  of The National Trust  Tim Parker casts all the Poxy votes. It will come as no surprise at all if Mr Parker sends all the Proxies down the wire to Vote for his favoured six establishment approved figures. "

Member Raymond Williams says - " The Christian Voice is right about the Council Election was fixed - by the Nominations Committee recommendations but they are wrong about Proxy Votes. "

WHY NOT change the Voting Procedure ?

If the results of The Election are going to be pre-determined by The Nominations Committee -
They know best !

WHY HAVE ANY ELECTION AT ALL ?  

The National Trust is just building up the hopes of decent Candidates, wasting National Trust money, and cynically ensuring in effect, that Members will Vote according to the wishes of the Nominations Committee. 

No, The Nominations Committee do not know best !

Making Lives Better

OPEN LETTER TO The Rt.Hon. STEVE BAKER MP

You must be as frustrated as me about the EU negotiations.

The Divorce Bill seems the main sticking point.

Please tell David Davies to move this along.... Here are some Urgent Questions for him to ask the EU. The 3 Stumbling Barriers to the Negotiations which must be resolved NOW.

The UK and the EU need answers to speed up further discussions.

1 - THE DIVORCE BILL

What Share of EU Assets does the UK own ?

What sum of money does the UK have to pay legally up to leaving date 2019 ?

What share of EU Loans to Member States does the UK own ?

What does the EU expect the UK to pay and what is the Justification ?

The UK cannot pay forever into the EU Pensions .

What is the gap between what the UK will pay and what the EU want the UK to pay. ?

Surely, David Davies can get answers to these questions.

Concentrate on the Divorce Bill otherwise we are talking to a brick wall and the Conservatives will get the blame.

2 - THE IRISH BORDER

My Solutions....... 

A - Allow free trade between Eire and Northern Ireland as at present

B - Tighten up Passport Control Checks for visitors from Northern Ireland to the UK.

C - Only short term entry for EU  citizens who enter the UK via Northern Ireland.

D - Free Trade from Northern Ireland and Eire IF the EU reach an early Free Trade deal with the UK. 

3 - CITIZENS RIGHTS IN THE UK AND EU POST BREXIT

A - No change for British Citizens living in the EU.

B - No change for EU citizens living in the UK.

C - Drop the plan that they must reapply for  Permit to Remain in the UK or EU. Not necessary.

I am only an ordinary UK citizens.  Negotiator Rt.Hon.David Davies MP has an army of civil servants.  Revise the Priorities in the talks. Discuss the Divorce Bill NOW as the EU want. Otherwise, the UK will spend many more months in deadlock.  

The UK have a very strong position when it comes to trade talks, later on in the Negotiations.

MESSAGE FOR NON CELEBRITIES

A MESSAGE TO ALL NON CELEBRITIES

Be grateful that you are not famous. Be thankful that you are not a Celebrity ! You may not have their money but you can be very happy with your normal life.

You can go about work and love your Family without being hounded by The Media.

You will not have to mix with Celebrities who take drugs. Some of them die as a result of drug addiction.

Most of the Celebrities are so vain. You can be yourself. You don't have to satisfy the wishes of your Fans.

Some famous Celebrities are only good at Singing or Acting. That is it. You probably have many other talents. Know yourself as the Greeks said years ago.

Encourage your Children and Grandchildren to live their lives to the full. Too many young people say..." I want to be a famous singer. It will change my life. " so do thousands of other young people think that. Look at the thousands of people who turn up for X Factor auditions. It semis to be TV viewing to see the hopes of most them crushed. They see Singing as an easy way our. They think it will bring happiness.
It may not. There are one or two Winners. The rest sink into oblivion.. shattered, disappointed, depressed. Wha a pity !

Consider how many Celebrities get divorced.
Consider how many Celebrities die young
Consider how many Celebrities have Breakdowns because they crack from the pressures of Being a Star.
 Remember the old saying.... " Money does not buy Happiness. "
It is true today.

Remember that " You cannot buy Health. " Many so called Celebrities lose their health at an early age because of the stress of touring, concerts, deadlines and some disappointments. Heroin, Cocaine and Crack Cocaine abuse In Britain Today costs the NHS £Billions. I am not saying that Celebrities are responsible for all these abuses. However, the record is full of Celebrity deaths from Drugs  - the stupid people. Chasing Celebrity status will mix you with all these dangers. You may survive - I hope so - but you will be in danger mixing with the Celebrity clique. Think strongly about this.

You can be very happy from being an ordinary Citizen. Life has  more to offer than being famous. Volunteers get great satisfaction from the unpaid work they do. Low paid Nurses in The NHS want to serve humanity. Not for Profit organisation are full of decent people who are motivated by the will to serve - they are the Givers not the Takers of this World - the Salt of the World. I have nothing but respect for them.

I am glad that I am not a Celebrity. I am what I am and I have no regrets.

I suggest that you tell your children and Grandchildren about this article. It may be a big turning point in their young. lives. Their future may be bright without being a Celebrity.

COUNTRYSIDE ALLIANCE V LEAGUE AGAINST CRUELTY TO ANIMALS

The COUNTRYSIDE V THE LEAGUE AGAINST CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.

If there was one emotive subject In Britain Today, it is the one about Hunting.
However, there is so much misunderstanding about the situation.
People on both sides and in Parliament are passionate about the Pros and Cons about Hunting.
 I am a Candidate for The National Trust Council Elections - Voting ends online this Friday 13 October 2017.

A Motion has been submitted for the AGM on 21 October, to ban Trail Hunting on National Trust Land. It is opposed by The Trustees of The National Trust. I would not like to predict the outcome.

My views can be summarised as follows:

We must obey the Law.
Currently Blood Sport Hunting is illegal.
The issue is therefore about Trail Hunting. This is when a sensory Trail is laid in the countryside. Hunters and packs of dogs follow the trail. There are no blood Hunting involved.
Providing there is no abuse, this is permitted. I am not against this in principle. So, Countryside Alliance, you have my support, if you do not break the Law, no abuse, no breach of The National Trust Licence.

On the other hand, League against Cruelty to Animals, I support your aims, I am against Blood sports of any kind.  Surely, if the National Trust Trustees and Members vote to reject your Motion,
You must accept the verdict but, remain vigilant. I will ensure that the National Trust does, if I am elected.
However, the League against Cruel Sports say that there are abuses. Also, this should not be allowed. I have no means of checking the abuses. I do not think that the Trustees would lie about abuses.

So, a very emotive subject which can be resolved by vigilance from The League and respect to the Licences and no abuse.

Finally, the result of the Motion should be respected. If not, we will have bad feeling in the National Trust and chaos.

Is this not a fair compromise ? I hope so.

NATIONAL TRUST - COUNCIL ELECTIONS 2017

If you are a member of The National Trust, you are invited to.....

VOTE FOR

RAYMOND WILLIAMS
Candidate for Council
Buckinghamshire

He will serve  Members and Stakeholders well over the next 3 years if elected.

THANK YOU.

PM Theresa May MP is Innocent.

Prime Minister Theresa May MP apologised to The Conservative Party Conference 2017 because she lost seats in the General Election.

She did not have to apologise. SHE IS iNNOCENT.

The Conservative Party won the Election but lost their majority because The Labour Party and their Leader Jeremy Corbyn misled the Electorate big time - and the Students and other supporters believed Labour.

Why was this ? Because ordinary people in Britain are fed up with Austerity and they liked the Labour Promises which were built on SAND !

Students and future students liked the idea of no University charges. Great - lets vote for Labour.

They could not care less that the Conservatives had to balance the books and reduce the high interest on the National Debt.

So, The thousands of Students voted Labour.

The sequel after the Election - Labour denied saying they would abolish University Fees.

Theresa May told the truth - Labour lied.

OK what next ? People liked the promise of more social housing fro Labour.

More votes for Labour.

However, no mention from Labour....How ?

Theresa May told the truth about what could actually be afforded. But, many people did not want to listen.

Labour then promised Nationalisation will return. The people believed him.

The Conservatives remembered the turmoil last time Railways and the Utilities were State run. Chaos.

But, many people did not want to know about the past. Many were too young.

And so it goes on. Labour offering goodies. Conservatives being realistic. But, people did not want to know.

THE BIG LESSON

From now on, start offering Goodies. Here are my suggestions.......

1 - LOWER INHERITANCE TAXES.

2 - BUILD MORE SOCIAL HOUSING.

3 - CARE COSTS TO BE LIMITED TO £50,000 MAXIMUM IN TOTAL.

4 - INJECT ANOTHER £10 BILLIONS INTO THE NHS.

5 - CONSIDER QUANTITATIVE EASING LIKE WAS MADE FOR BANK SURVIVAL

6 - SPEED UP BREXIT

7 - SHOW LABOUR POLICIES TO BE FALSE

8 -STOP IN FIGHTING. BACK THERESA MAY. SHE IS A VERY GOOD PRIME MINISTER

9 -INCREASE TAX ALLOWANCES TO £15,000 in 2019.

10 - LAUNCH AN INTERIM MANIFESTO WITH ALL THE GOODIES.

11 - OUTWIT LABOUR.

12 - STOP PERSONAL ATTACKS ON CORBYN. CONCENTRATE ON CONSERVATIVE GOODIES. ATTRACT LABOUR VOTERS AND MORE UKIP SUPPORTERS.

START NOW !

NEW EUREKYS LANDMARK

EUREKYS has reached a new landmark of 150 Articles.

NEW GUN LAWS FOR THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

GUN LAW IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
The Voice of one Ordinary British Citizen who loves, values and supports the United States of America.

It was far back in 1961 that as a very young man I visited the USA for the first time on a Scholarship to study Marketing. I landed in New York. Since then, on business, I have visited the USA on many occasions including a period of study at your wonderful Harvard Business School. I love the people and the Nation of America.
Like most people in Britain, I am saddened by the record of gun crimes and mass shootings over the last decade in particular. In fact, I am horrified. I want to help solve the impasse between your President, Congress and the National Rifle Association of America concerning Gun Laws. The present situation cannot continue !
Here are my views for further discussion.

A PROPOSED NEW NATIONAL GUN LAW 2018.
( Approved by the President, Congress and Supported by
The National Rifle Association ).

Some years ago, I wrote an article about Gun Law Policy in the USA.
I do not think that anyone took any notice of my suggestions.
So, the killings,  massacres have gone on and on since I wrote my article. What a tragic pity ! So, here is my update after the recent Las Vegas record breaking massacre.

The background is bleak and any attempt at change looks impossible.
The National Rifle Association of America strongly support the ability of American Citizens to buy arms and ammunition and to bear guns of all types and magnitude of destructive capability.
They claim - rightly - that the Constitution of American gives every citizen this right and this has to be strongly upheld by the Government.
President Trump gets a lot of support from the NRA. Will he support a radical review of the Gun Laws in the USA ? This has to be seen. The USA Congress has had many wake up calls in the past decade. Will they ever react in a positive manner to help reduce mass killings and individual murders before it is too late?

The Arms Businesses in the USA like this stance of the NRA because they make lots of profit.
The other problem is the Internet. Anyone can buy anything on the Global Internet - Machine guns, High Velocity Rifles, Hand grenades, Rockets, Bomb Making materials and so on.
No wonder there is so much violence in the USA.

Is there any solution to the dangers of new killings ?
I say YES.  Here it is with my logic.......

The Founding Fathers never meant for the Amendment to the Constitution for citizens to buy weapons of mass destruction because they meant Rifles for citizens to protect against enemies - not to kill their fellow citizens with Automatic Weapons  because they had no 21st Century weaponry in those days. However, the NRA would  never accept this argument. In my view, the NRA misinterpret the Amendment giving citizens " The right to bear arms." There is a need for a more up to date definition - to carry what type and how many weapons ?

 THE EUREKYS SOLUTION
New Gun Law 2018.

1- The USA Gun Law must continue to allow citizens to bear arms under The American Constitution but defined in 2018 as ...." One Handgun and 6 bullets per Citizen " providing the citizen is of sound mind confirmed by a Registered State Doctor and is  not a Criminal.

2- Registered Members of the NRA Rifle Clubs and Hunting Clubs can own One Hunting Rifle and One Handgun with 6 Bullets - but not High Velocity Rifles or Rocket propelled Rifles - and Matching Bullets, once again subject to a " Certificate of Sound Mind " and not being a Criminal. Each Club must keep up to date A Register of who owns what and details must also be transferred to the new National Register of Arms Ownership.

3- Automatic weapons of any kind will be banned for sale in the USA.

4- Shops currently selling Automatic weaponry must cease selling these items. The State will confiscate their stocks and recompense the Owners.

5- Manufacturing Companies of Automatic Weaponry and matching bullets must cease to supply the USA Domestic Market and they must have an approved export licence or import licence.

6- The purchase of any weapons including hand guns and bullets is made illegal from the Internet. Internet providers will have to withdraw advertisements on the internet for all weaponry. I realise that this is a difficult task currently but a solution to the problem must be found. Social Media and sites such as eBay must be brought within the Law. Second hand sales of prohibited weaponry is also to be deemed Unlawful.

7- The Sale and Purchase of Automatic Weapons and matching Bullets of any kind must be banned in the USA with heavy penalties for breaking this Law.

8- Private or Business Import of Automatic Weapons will be banned except for approved military usage by a Government Agency.

9- Soldiers leaving the Armed  Forces must surrender all weapons except One Handgun and 6 bullets.....once again subject to a Certificate of Sound Mind by a State Doctor.

10- Robberies of Handguns and Bullets from Shops and Warehouses will carry a maximum jail sentence of 30 years.

11- An Amnesty of 1 Year for Citizens to surrender Automatic Weapons will be granted. The State will reimburse the owners.

Reasonable people will say......

A- The NRA have their rights to bear arms preserved under the 18th Century Constitution but updated for the scenarios in the 21st Century.

B- The situation in the 21st Century with arms developments is fully recognised.

C- People with mental disturbances will not be able to purchase arms.

D- Criminals will not be able to purchase guns of mass destruction .

E- The USA Citizen can protect against break ins and attacks of all kinds.

F- Arms manufactures and retailers will be reviewed on a Regular basis by a Special Arms Police Force - The SAPF.

G- A National Arms Purchase Register - The NAPR will monitor the purchase of all Handguns and Bullets. If a name appears who has multiple gun purchases, the owner will be prosecuted and the Supplier of the guns.

H- A Citizen who purchases One Handgun and Six Bullets must present a Purchase Approved Certificate. The Approved Retailer must have his Licence Number easily visible on the Handgun or Hunting Gun for the purposes of traceability.

 I- THE BIG BONUS SHOULD BE....NO MORE MASSACRES AND REDUCED ILLEGAL KILLINGS  ON A GROTESQUE SCALE IN THE USA.

J- The Police Forces will continue to bear arms suitable to maintain Law and Order.

K- The National Guard will continue to be armed.

L- Any Member of the Police Forces or National Guard who leaves service must give up all weaponry unless allowed under the terms of the New Gun Law as specified above.

M- No person will be allowed into the USA with a gun or bullets of any kind except Approved Bodyguards of United Nations Members.
However, these too must be registered with a USA Authorities.

N- The United Nations must support the new USA Gun Laws 2018 in a manner to prevent any abuse. The General Assembly must pass a Resolution supporting the USA Government.

Has anyone else got better ideas to stop the slaughter, fear and sadness ?

THE CHALLENGES FOR AMERICA

Q1- Will the NRA accept this honourable and sensible compromise ?

Q2- Will the USA Arms Industry put lives before Profits ?

Q3- Will the President and Congress of the USA be brave enough to pass this New Gun Law in 2018 / 2019 ?

Q4- Surely, the Status Quo is totally unacceptable ?
