[QUOTE="Hfd Cattle, post: 8212328, member: 64714"] BFU ..... a group met a couple of weeks ago to have an informal discussion on the way forward . An interim Chairman has been appointed so that the organisation can move forward . A steering committee has been set up and the first meeting will be tonight . There is / are a group of members who have been doing a huge amount if work behind the scenes in order to make sure that everything is done in the correct manner. The initial steering group is made up of principally the founder members along with a few others who have shown a desire to get involved and help it move forward . The view of the team is that in possibly 6 mths time there could be an 'election' for the committee to move forward . Any one who has paid their £10 joining fee is eligible to look on the BFU site and put ideas forward or just view what's going on . Tonight's agenda is available to members to view on the BFU site but we are glad of any useful constructive comments . The organisation is in its infancy and it will be a long hard slog to get it to a 'place of recognition' in higher places . There are contacts being made within Westminster to make known what it is about and hopefully there will soon be a 'mission statement ' as to who we are and what the intentions are . It's a bit like eating an elephant .....one bite at a time .! It would be easy just to sit back and do nothing but here we have a real chance to invest a tenner into trying to get a better voice for British Agriculture. please bear in mind that this is all being done by farmers who are already busy in their everyday life and therefore things might not move quite as quickly as some would like ........but ....we are moving forward .
