“The National Convention is some 900 strong with every association chairman (625) plus approx 150 representatives of the 10 regions and 44 areas. There are 100 places for members of recognised organisations. Members of the Board and immediate previous Nat Convention office holders are also members.The National Convention holds its AGM each Spring and elects its officers who sit on the Board of the Party. It also meets in the autumn for its half yearly meeting. 66% majority of its members are needed for rule changes and in some cases this percentage has to be matched by 66% of MPs.
It provides a focus for views of Party members and acts as a link between the Party Leader and its members.”
As current members know UCL has a seat on the National Convention for being one of the largest branches in the country. As our President Starbuck is unable to attend the Conference (too busy preparing the amazing events we have this year) Laura-Rose will be taking the seat while I represent the Student TRG.
This is an amazing chance to grill the leadership of the Party and espcially the Party Board. Please can members leave themes or questions they may have and would want asked.
