Under those circumstances, it is pretty unimpressive to find that only 80+ diggers have bothered to join the Diggers' Forum. My own feeling is that any digger who posts grievances about under-representation and lack of action, but who does not join the DF, is really only interested in finding someone else to blame for their problems.
Before complaining about lack of representation and action, you should take the trouble to find out what representation there really is, and what action is really being taken.

Quote:quote:As far as I know, there are some 80+ members, most of whom are diggers..The impression given by many posts on this forum is that diggers are a large group of people who feel themselves to be badly treated by their employers, under-represented by the IfA and for whom little or no real action is taken by the IfA or anyone else. There are a lot of calls for 'action not words'.
