Oh - that's disappointing. Thanks for the update honetpot

JanetGeorge - thank you so much for sharing this information. It is important that all members are informed of the facts. Has there been any update regarding the minutes that were promised from the BHS?

I find it too sad that BHS believes their number one priority with horse welfare is castration clinics. This was confirmed by the Director of Welfare at the AGM. How can the UK in the 21st century still have such major welfare issues? 200 horses?! BHS please put UK horse welfare back on your...

The changes to the board and the nominations committee are as clear as mud. 'Could' and 'that's our intention' were phrases used regularly. But when the detail started to unravel it was evident that things had not been clearly thought through nor had they been formally documented. For instance -...

Let’s be open with what happened BHS. An adjournment would not have been needed to be called if the BHS had provided enough clarity on the changes to the constitution in advance of the vote. As it was, there were still plenty of questions and concerns unanswered by the end of the meeting. As...

You might be interested to know that out of the 101 votes that were carried out in person at the AGM, over 30 votes came from BHS staff and trustees. According to the Chief Operating Officer there is no conflict of interest. Well done for winning an adjournment BHS members!

Wishing all of us good luck for tomorrow's meeting. Regardless of what happens - thanks to those that have taken the time to vote by proxy or in person. To quote Thurgood Marshall: Where you see wrong or inequality or injustice, speak out, because this is your country. This is your democracy...

This does not surprise me. Each employee is a member so the CE will be relying on these votes to get the proposed changes passed. Therefore please keep spreading the word everyone. The British Horse Society needs genuine votes to decide it's future

Totally agree! Merry Christmas everyone :D

PS talking of reaching a greater audience - we've just passed 60,000 views! Thank you to everyone who continues to follow, share and contribute to this thread and a special thank you once again to JanetGeorge for starting this.

Smart move by the British Horse Society. This makes it look like it's a charity that values its members and listens to them. However it's further evidence of wasting charity money. All they had to do was publish this properly in the pages of British Horse which goes to every member- as...

Honetpot your post says last edited today at 7.39pm. Has your post been modified by H&H?

Very well said Honetpot To add to this 1. No one knows the true total membership figure. Various numbers are banded around but with an unreliable membership database (which has cost the British Horse Society over £1million so far and with rumours it will cost over £1million to fix), how will...

Hi The Xmas Furry The Regional emails are sent by the Regional Managers. Unfortunately they are kept in the dark as much as members are. I believe the AGM and the changes to the constitution are something that the CE was hoping to keep under the radar on her quest for ultimate power and control...

Great result JanetGeorge! Pammy has lots of followers :D
