PUBLIC MEETING
The venue for our first meeting has been confirmed:
- Gresham Hotel, Dublin. 2:30pm. Saturday, 4th December (i.e. this Saturday)
The Gresham was chosen from several options primarily for its symbolism (being opposite the GPO).
An agenda is being worked upon and was the focus on a conference call this evening between some members. It is expect that the meeting will last until 4:00pm and will be focused on discussing how we can achieve our goal of running the "pledge campaign" in the coming election. This campaign is to send "pledge packs" to candidates and parties running in the coming election asking that they pledge to holding a National Convention on reform that accords to our three principles:
- Be directed and "owned" by the people.
- Be radical enough to give a sense of a new beginning and fresh start.
- Address the failings of governance and institutions that underlie the current crisis.
Saturday's meeting is open the public and everyone on this list is specifically invited. I hope to see as many of you as possible there.
