Hallo all : - As an activity/interest group that can't even agree on having any need for a customarily-adequate para-bureaucratic committee component, SLUG would maybe feel out of place dealing with politicians who actually want to govern and are willing to face up to trying to do it. So maybe the ones who are happier with opposition jobs (aren't all three MSPs mentioned and likewise the SSP ones 'List' as well?) would indeed be suitably irrelevant? Not exactly building on strengths is it?
Don't get me wrong, SLUG has been fine in terms of individual members' achievements and help given but what has it done in say the last six months except survive?
