My 'Manifesto'
binksy
I have decided upon not actually writing one.
My reasons for this are simple.
While manifestos are all good and well i cannot as an independent tell you what i want as it may not be what you want.
And so i offer you this one promise and it is a promise i made when i held my first office and it is thus:
Should i be elected you are not electing me for me but for you.
A very simple promise which has not yet been broken nor will it.
I would like to be judged by my actions and the example i set and not by this 'manifesto'.
I thank you for your time .
All the best.

This is a man who's actions speak volumes about his integrity and dedication. You cannot go wrong voting for Binksy and would in fact being doing Independent Voices a great service. Good luck brother!
thank you very much donovon
good luck m8
Good luck.
For those of us who are newer, could you gently remind us of what those actions are? Just so we have a frame of reference? My dealings with you have always been good ones, but my New Citizens may not have had the benefit of your company. yet. 🙂
I can give them one. You are one of our Mentors for New Citizens. That's nothing to sneeze at. Important work that. 🙂
So you are not presenting manifesto because people may not like it, and as a result wish only uninformed people supported you at random? I don't know you. While you try to speak good things your "manifesto" lacks the facts about what will you be trying to achieve. TBH it is as if you never wrote it.
I agree with DT - I would've trusted you to do a good job anyway, this just confirms you really believe in the "Independent" part 🙂
I have always found you honest and hardworking. But a manifesto is a statment of principles, of where we are and where someone who is running for an office thinks we should go. Then people vote on what direction they think that the org or socity should go in. A manifisto isn't about telling prople what you should do, it should be a reflection of who you are, what you have done and what direction you think we should go.
The rest then is up to the voter.
Thanks people
@imaNewbie:
you must understand that we are independent
everyones views and goals are different
and as i promised everyones views will come before mine so what is the point of posting mine
i fell that if im elected i will be elected for what i have done by the party not what i write here
and btw plz do get to know me🙂
@tarazis sati(finaly spelled it ri first time 😁
Thank you.
However this party knows me very very well.
And as an independent PP my views wouldn matter as i said so why post them.
I am not going to tell the party which way i think we should go as the PP candidate i do not feel i can rightfully
The sit you describe has already happened over the last month tarazis i feel we are already at the the rest is up to the voter stage 🙂
*applauds binksy*
thanks lol
Well, I have to say that binksy is a little different from some others. In my experience he is highly skilled, thoughtful, balanced, well-informed and a gentleman.
Above all else, the Bowman spends time on building direct, epersonal and deep relationships at all levels. He stays in touch EVERY day and is involved in many initiatives, from political to military, noob-nurture to framework structures.
The fact that he CLEANED UP at the last congress election shows the extent of his popularity.
Its always a toss-up between talk and walk.
This guy delivers.
Love ya binksy, keep on doing what you do best Sir.
Is this a congress ''manifesto''? That means my time is almost up here.
@grainne
I always thought i was your special one 🙂 now im not so sure 🙁
.........im speachless grainne...........
thanks
GG no hard feelings?
Ah Binksy of course there are no hard feelings i always have Bella to fall back on 🙂
oh that was good well done
best one yet lol
All soldiers are special to me Chief.
Sure, you taught me that yourself?
When you were busy breakin' my e-a**, if I recall?
come on people help me into the top 5 plz
Voted...
Could you maybe say what bits of the proposal on internal machinery being discussed on the IV forum you like and what bits you don't agree with? to get a better idea of the direction you'd personally prefer Independent voices to go... thanks
sean i dont see the point for the reasons i gave imaNewbie
however if you would like il re-read them tomoro and we can have a nice long chat as one independent to another
maybe on the IRC?
cheers binksy i do try but its getting hard to be inventive with the same joke over and over again 🙂
i know but its the thought that counts lol
jez, what a load of dribble ... all your views are mine ... this country will go to hell
@thesazman
I believe what Binksy is saying is that as PP he would not introduce his personal politics into it but would lead at the will of his fellow independents.
A very wise and honorable path in my opinion.
my point exactly donovan
are you a mind reader?
#tea leaves?
Nope. Different delivery on my part, same core beliefs on independence my friend.
fair point il give to to ya 🙂
