HISTORY DICTATES , A GOOD GENERAL KNOWS WHEN TO PICK A FIGHT,WE MUST NOT BE TRAPPED INTO A FIGHT UNTIL WE DICTATE AND DECIDE WHEN AND WHERE,and not when chaos managers fuelled by a desire to avoid a referendum on there inability to do the job that they are employed to do.
Great post ....... lets hope our members take the time to vote YES, and arent taken in by the lies that the management are telling.
And that we all stay disciplined and united !!
