Look at the spread of issues John covers on his blog and you come to the conclusion that he is someone well involved with the day to day issues of his members.<br />Makes a change from ultras who never take responsibility for anything....'talk the talk but can't walk the walk.'

I don’t mind that. <br /><br />What about yourself anon? What do you do in life? Anything at all useful?<br /><br />BTW – look out for a very special announcement about what I am doing next.
