Personally, and I may be unpopular for saying so, I'm not sure that inundating the ministers inbox with emails, at this late stage is such a good idea. Regardless of good intentions. The time for that was during the PC, IMO.
And telegraphing the proposal to those in opposition is just going to make it worse.
He'll need a bigger inbox. :)
I'm sure he's fully aware of the pro's and con's of the situation and if not he's not doing his job right, no disrespect.
Also, and no offence, but I can't believe that everyone was not aware of the fact that the buck stops with him. It's been discussed here many times over the last six months.
Even though I was aware he's the environment minister I just had a quick google of the man.
As it happends, just this afternoon he announces £800k of grants for projects to help DAERA’s strategic aims.
So he's obviously beeing seen to be doing right by thing as per his post.
Anyhoo, this all sounds a bit negative, not my intention. I even bought a load yesterday, bouyed by the arrival of the viking ships. Pun intended. :)
I just think that a load of emails from "shareholders" is not a good idea, just sayin'.
From locals, for or against, yes of course.
Just my thoughts, fwiw.
