[matilda] Re: Social centres, funding and the PGA Hallmarks

[Mr Jase Malgod]

uh... so if a concensus is reached with a much wider group in the future 
that they don't want to stick to PGA then there will be blocking tactics 
applied by a PGA 'faction' or whatever... not very concensus minded I feel. 
Also, surprised at the name change, don't really see the need but hey ho. 

That moan said, happy that things have been agreed and the centre can move 
on with a solid grounding. Good stuff,
