Who is CS? Are Hamish and Andy trying to imply that only those running the meeting and those who are presenting the proposed new constitution are Chess Scotland? Is this propaganda to try and convince people that those proposing the Constitution are the official line.

Seems a bit unfair. Those on the working party set the time and date when they can make it, are running the meeting, setting the agenda and can argue for their views but the likes of me, who proposed amendments can't make it because I'm working, so there will be 5 arguing for the proposed constitution and nobody for some of the amendments. Talk about stacking the deck.....
