An election is under way for the NSW Director of the ANF following the tie of six votes all from the last election a month ago. I have spoken with Stuart Kilborn, the candidate running against incumbent Brenton Brown. I like what Stuart has to say and that he is not tained by four years of failure as Brenton is. While I have grave doubts about the relevance or effectiveness of the ANF, current members in NSW ought to vote. Click here to see a copy os Stuart’s candidate statement.
Stuart has not sought my endorsement nor asked for coverage here. I am giving it because of the failure of the ANF to adequately represent newsagents under the watch of the current NSW Director and because the organisation desperately needs new blood.
While on the ANF election, it has been put to me that during the vote last month the organisation had one of its staff contacting members seeking votes for the incumbent NSW Director. I don’t know if this is true. Maybe NSW newsagents could advise if they were contacted.
