Mike Hamilton-Macy, candidate for FRA chairman.

o i will when i come back to party at the weekends :P n do a few miles in the lambo

you would only wrap it around a lampost or into a brick wall lol

then ill just buy a new 1 :P or get the boss to treat me to one ha

Shane, it is a free election, anyone can vote for who they like or think will do a good job.
As you probably now know Ed has been banned from standing as president.
When you say I now believe you plan a take over of the FRA and you are all corrupting the system... do you mean me personally?
I have stated several times that I (if elected) intend to make the FRA more transparent, fair and evenhanded.
How could I (even if I wanted!) take over the FRA? I will only get one vote just like all the other members of the committee!
I am standing for two reasons:
1. Because of the reasons I have just mentioned.
2. Because numerous roboteers encouraged me to (before Ed was on the scene!).

Mike,
Just need to correct your last statment.

Mr Hoppitt has not been banned from anything to do with the election.

He has been deemed temporarily not elligable to contest an FRA election as his application/status may contavene the FRA constitution. Mr Hoppitt will be offered an opportunity to present his case to the new governing body in due course.

I would urge you to be careful with language as I am sure you would not want to be seen as misleading all, or some of your readers

I stand corrected, Mr. Hoppitts application has been rejected, not banned.

same thing

can i just point out something.

we had a healthy campaign going on and with valuable candidates running for seats.

Again 1 person has come along and there is unsettlement. My statment was not pionted at you directly Mike. I was invited to see what happens regarding the FRA and how it works.

If you were totally honest and totally unbiased then you would agree with me that things at the moment look very suspect. You saw emails that were tooing and frowing between the committee and if you are honest and unbiased then you would agree with me that it looked like someone was being very biased toward someone else.

You cant blame me for worrying when I really do have the sport at heart and if there is any corruption going on at all by anyone at all on the fra then i will expose it on the forum for everybody to see.

I then wont run for any seat cos if there is corruption on the committee already then i dont want part of it. if there is any corruption with the new committee then i dont want part of it.

I will expose everything i find out eventually if i find out.

I have put myself up for a roboteers rep and for the roboteers i will stand. They all have a right to know.

Yes, as a candidate I have seen the tooing and froing of e-mails. As regards bias, that depends on whether you mean support for someone (anyone has the right to do that) or something more sinister.
I would agree that things have been upset, a great shame, but thats polotics sometimes.
As to corruption, should it arise, I personally will not tollerate it.

thats good to hear Mike. I do hope you wont tolerate it because i certainly wont.
