KEEP MACLEAN COURT OPEN - JOIN THE PROVOST'S CAMPAIGN!

WE HAVEN'T GOT MUCH TIME THE PETITION DEADLINE IS 11TH FEB
Three things you can do:
1) Print off a copy of the petition
2) Print off a poster and display it
3) e-mail everyone you know to get their help and then e-mail our councillors, don't' bother with Liz she is organising the campaign, then tell everyone else you know about this issue.
If you don't know what this is all about please read this post below.
UPDATE: Please get all petition sheets to the service point at th Courthouse for Liz to pick up by 1500 on Wednesday. Liz can be contacted for further information via her webpage on the Highland Council site. You can contact Councillors, Laurie Fraser, Graham Marsden or Sandy Park via this list of councillors.
UPDATE 11,00 am 07/02/09: The Gurnmeister intends to hit the street with a few petition sheets (weather permitting) on Monday morning. Want to join in? Print a few off and meet outside the courthouse at 1000 am. E-mail the Gurn if you have any other petition efforts planned. The Gurn also hears that Jean Tolmie, chair of RCC is mustering her troops too. Any of our other councillors doing anything? Please let the Gurn know.
Regulars please note: for a while any new posts will appear below this and the previous one connected with this shameful scandal.
On other matters, posted a link to a new Nairn blog.
And potential for 'Milk riots' in Nairn?

Let's save money in the Highland Council by reducing all councillors salaries and allowance by 10%. How much would that save? :)

A quick pointer - I've been warned before that in England at least, petitions to Downing Street count not by the number of signatories on a petition, but instead the number of petitions about the topic in the first place.

Does this mean that we should start additional petitions?

Also, where do the petitions go?

Just let me know about the details and I'll do Millbank School.

Getting the petiton to the service point by 3 pm on Wednesday does not get me much time to collect my sigs. Are we going to be continuing to collect sigs after this time??

@anon, Liz needs them for the meeting the next day. Please contact her through her web page if you want to continue after 3pm.
I'm sure she will fix something up for you.
