IPSWICH: Martin & Roger supported over Gill & Hank
IPSWICH: Martin & Roger supported over Gill & Hank
Ipswich Association nominated Martin Powell-Davies for the Vice President position at our General Meeting on Thursday 20th September.
Hank Roberts was put forward at first. His role in the Wembley anti-Academy occupation was acknowledged, but so was his unreliable voting record on the National Executive. After discussion, his nomination was withdrawn. There were also doubts about nominating a headteacher, Gill Goodswen, as President.
Everyone at the meeting agreed that Martin's visit to the Association a few years ago had left a good impression and those who had been to conferences knew well exactly what Martin stood for ! We concluded by agreeing to nominate Martin and Roger King.
The meeting also passed a motion calling for an immediate ballot on pay and united action with other public sector trade unions.
