Meeting of the Yorkshire &
the Humber Regional Steering Committee
Location:
Wressle
Editor's Note:
it was indeed an interesting meeting as Branches prepare to debate what is
rapidly becoming a leadership crisis, or should I say, a lack of leadership
crisis? A number of tough-minded resolutions were passed at this
meeting by your Committee - a committee the NEC has, so far, failed formally
to recognise.

Public Meeting in Hull with Robert Kilroy-Silk,
MEP
Location:
Edwardian Suite Conference Room,
Quality Royal Hotel
170, Ferensway, Hull North Humberside HU1 3UF
Editor's Note: it was a well attended (approx.
85) and well disciplined meeting, chaired by David Rust in an
excellent venue, where Robert Kilroy-Silk spoke without notes for over an
hour and then took questions from the floor. I was there and I heard
no dissenting voices either from the floor or during the extensive
networking which took place before and after the meeting. It seems
clear that another meeting, more centrally located, in Yorkshire is a must
and we look forward to a repeat performance in Leeds or some other
population centre as soon as possible.
Saturday 11 September, 2004 @ 1400hr
Meeting to re-activate a Yorkshire &
the Humber Regional Steering Committee (name formally to be agreed)
Location: The Fox Public House
34 South Baileygate, PONTEFRACT WF8 2JL
Editor's Note: a productive
meeting by all accounts. David Rust of Hull Branch is the new
Chairman. Hull Branch 'walked the walk' and delivered UKIP's first
City Councillor in June 2004 so, hopefully, we can now look forward to
regional administration characterised by the same resolve.

UKIP Yorkshire & the Humber Region - Meeting
of Branch Representatives
Location: Wressle
Editor's Note:
it was resolved to re-form a
regional steering committee for the Yorkshire & the Humber EU Region
consisting of one delegate from each active Branch within the Region.
The first meeting should take place in early September (probably on the 11th) at a time and venue to
be decided. There are considered to be about 14 active Branches.
Bradford appears to be the most successful branch in the Region based on
the percentage increase in membership. The need to consolidate and
to split some Branches, in the short to medium term, was raised together with
the eventual aim of forming one Branch per Westminster Constituency and the
need to re-activate Branches which exist but which have fallen into a
non-operational state. The need for fund-raising activities was clearly
indicated to be the #1 priority.
