Someone from VBSI please get in contact with me and I will pass on the info ( By the way, how can I formally join VBSI - although I feel I am part of it since May - ? And how can we make it a legal entity with a registered address and bank account? )
To summarize the progress so far on the court case :
- I had a reputable law firm confirming they will be willing to take our case ( see my previous post )
- got info on who is representing BAPIO, we could get in touch with them as well
- supertiger is chasing the lawyer who officially submitted the judicial review request ( it is crucial to get an answer on this !! ).
BR,

If we can get together 200 HSMP + WP people.. then every one needs to contribute 100. Do you guys think it is possible ? I think so...
Obviously count me in.
Great work Paul !!!
could you stop please using red bold font? it is sort of annoying... sorry about it...BadPaul wrote:Hi all,
Just wanted to clarify something ( in response to olisun's comments ): the response I have received from the law firm refers to " an individual ", as I have made enquiries about ME wanting to take HO to court.
I have got another reply from the solicitors yesterday after I have mentioned to them that someone already made a judicial review application voluntarily, please find it below :
" Paul
That is good news. VBSI could be detailed in the judicial review as an interested party.
Please keep me updated with the judicial review application as you have news. This will be of extreme interest to a lot of people. "
So now we all need to understand what is the situation on the judicial review application ( supertiger ? ) , and start collecting the money.
I don't know about the rest of you, but personally, I would rather loose ( in worst case scenario ) £100-200 or even more than not doing anything and then regretting it. It's everyone's choice now !

If yes, we need to start the legal action ASAP, it's already 3 months since the changes and we haven't made any progress.

Early June + six weeks is about now.

We expect to hear from them within two to six weeks. I will keep youinformed of new development in the above matter, in due course.
Saving the drowning is that drowning's own business. "VBSI is us" - this is the message the VBSI is repeatedly sending. Mona, you can consider yourself an active member from now on. I pm'ed you my email.mona-de-bois wrote: Also I think we need a someone who will organize us.
No news yet, but see above. CL _is_ going to have a meeting with Liam Byrne in a few days, and she is a professional legal worker working on our side. It is wise to consult with her. Yes, legal action is looming, but should not be rushed. I pm'ed you my email.BadPaul wrote:Do we have news on the judicial review application?

I believe it's all information the VBSI has at the moment. S.K. was emailed to, but has not replied yet. Probably "in due course" has not happened yet.
