For all those people that have ever had a gripe with the ITA, stand up and be counted.

Now that your all standing, are you mice or human beings?

I hope the latter.

Well unless you have been living under a log somewhere, you realize the AGM for the ITA is nearly upon us.

This is no silly date plucked from the sky, or a time to avoid Lottery House, just in case you get a job.

"It's Time", as the Labour party told us in the 70"s, to make a change.

Yes thats right folks, you can make a difference.

We live in a democratic society and we live with freedom of speech. so stand up and be counted.

All I have heard on hear, and from the horses mouths, is "they do this", "he did that", "she said that".

Well if your not happy, vote for the people that will make you happy.

Oh and if you make a mistake, it's only 12 months until we do it all again.

So as the title suggests: "It's Time for a Change".

Be there Sunday 22nd February and make your vote count.

After all they are spending your money. I know how mine should be spent,

Do You!

Hi All

Can I just make a small suggestion before WWIII erupts? I respect the right of all, Jason and Stuart most definately included, to post their views on this board. However the phrase "a time and a place" springs to mind. I am just worried that this line may yet turn into a slagging match before the ITA AGM, which, according to Mr or Ms Watcher, is on next Sunday, the 22nd. I think that may well be the appropriate forum for people to put their money where their cake holes are.

I am also aware this post won't stop this discussion from continuing here. And possibly rightly so. It may be that grievances need to be aired; society and communities like ours only evolve through lively debate. But please, lets not create any enemies.

In short; keep it clean kids. I think the one thing we can all agree on is that the ITA is an important and valuable institution. Lets just remember that.

PS Apologies re;spelling. I'm pretty sure I got "definately" wrong.
