Dear all,
I too was sceptical when I read Jamie's resume a year ago, however I
join my voice with Anne and Mark in saying that thus far, Jamie has
shown himself willing to speak out for the marginalised. He will be
participating in 'walk the talk', and I don't think it's all rhetoric.
So, this is perhaps the time for the BPS to be making a stand in a way
that has not been possible in the past, and I support the direction of
'travel'.
Warm regards from a chilly South Africa!
Jacqui :-)
