RPRA Levy ?

read that this rpra membership increase is being called a levy and not an increase, and will not be charged next year ......... i wouldnt hold my breath, nothing ever goes down and judging by those running the rpra they are not fit for purpose, i wouldnt be surprised if it goes up again next year because they know the fanciers wanting to race will pay it .

Rumour file down here George saying not enough life boats aboard there now to perhaps accommodate everyone wishing to jump ship type thing .

i expect quite a few will leave the rpra and a few partnerships will be cancelled to fly as one member ......

more non racing David £70 for us

levy call it what you want but its a massive increase and totally un-justified for what you get in return ,all regions should leave rpra and form their own organisations and get rings from nehu simple ,regions do all there own work anyway so let the regional secrataries get a wage and cut out the dead wood eh rpra is not fit for purpose as too much money is waisted by the old brigade

i agree darren, i wont be funding the gravy train after this year, i only need rings so no point funding their lifestyle .

I've always believed here charity is part of our general DNA etc David apparently not so it appears with your RPRA now. End of the day takes some doing I suggest of ones total incompetence perhaps, when one's dirty washing is hung out dry for the whole pigeon world to inspect as such.

yes knackered, i think the members have a right to know exactly how the rpra is run, how many employees, wages, company cars/perks and how much is given to charity and jollies in fancy hotels etc etc .

when it comes down to it they work for the members, we pay their wages so should be entitled to know how everything is run, incomings and outgoings ......
