I'm sure the resource groups to the F&O Committee are a useful resource.
But they lack legitimacy. Everyone who offered to serve was subjected to a vigorous assessment.
Those who survived this assessment, however well qualified, but were seen as being able to make a contribution that wasn't acceptable to one or two well placed members were "blackballed".
Not acceptable behaviour for a Methodist Connexional Committee.
But of course this won't be posted so we will never have a response.
