I don't know specifically what they do but they are represented in the Supporters Board. I'd also say DonsAction is largely a younger crowd whilst the MKDSA a bit older, so having voices from different demographics is usually a good thing

I've rejoined, so I guess they represent me. :D What questions do I ask?

Having a MKDSA isn't a bad thing. Having an MKDSA run in a certain way is. I've disagreed with the organisation for a number of years now, before this regime and before that. Which is strange because I really like a lot of people there, they're great people. But the organisation as a whole have often baffled me

So this happened last night.

I've heard second hand rumours that it was an absolute shambles, but it would be interesting to hear from someone that actually was there.

Ultimately though, the MKDSA hasn't dissolved just yet, but it's in even worse state than before...

Basically it’s in a state of limbo, no committee, and in a vote to dissolve it 10 voted for, 10 abstained, 1 never voted.
Personally I think the problem was as per the constitution no discussion was really allowed, so at least half the room didn’t think they had enough detail to make an informed decision.
If people had been told how it had got to this position they may have had a better understanding and be able to vote with that in mind.
Just my opinion…….
