POLL CHANGE RULES: Change Rules Pertaining to Source of CIC Funds

[BeautifulSunshine]

The main reason left the CIC because I was unhappy with its performance and could see the way it was going regarding this. I suspect, but I do not speak for him, that Kevin left for the same reasons. I would be happy to rejoin if I felt that it was improving. But to be honest I do not see this happening at the moment. The change as proposed would not have my support if I had a vote. I feel it goes strongly against the ethos of the CIC. If the proposer has so much money and wants to invest it then let him do so for himself outside of the club. I see no obvious benefit over using the CIC as a vehicle rather than self investment outside the club.

As Richard has stated in his post above. "immediate priority should be to improve the performance of our portfolio and generate a profit from our existing funds - which is the best way to attract new members" and attract back those who have left.

And so your return has come to pass.

As there has been no further feedback I have started the poll.

Please cast your vote and have your say.

I hope there is a clear outcome and it does not remain close, currently 50/50 sigh

Cannot say which outcome I hope for as I do not have an opinion as not a club member not thought how I would vote if I was a member

Yes but 50/50 is a NO vote
Needs 75%+
