Stared 7 years ago, women flocked. Women gave their time & any money they had. Some donors £50k+ many giving the little they could afford
Those naive enough to believe Party spin may be *shocked to discover the Party has no money, but for feminist women this is no shock at all

Since 2018 central office has been pushing for self ID. Consequently it has shed active committed members at an eye watering rate.
We digress.
Why has this crowd funder been launched after the conference & what does it tell us about WEP?

And what does this crowd fund get you for your money?
Well we aren’t sure 🤷♀️
Despite conference just finishing NO financial report was submitted to members for scrutiny.
We asked, we were met with characteristic stony silence.

Neither were members told the money pot was empty.
An entirely dishonest move.
Conference is the decision making body of the Party, by failing to mention this, they effectively sidestep party scrutiny & party democracy- they bring decision making in house (again).

Why does this matter…?
In 2020, Mandu appointed not one, not two, but three paid deputies (for a Party of only 7000).
These positions had no clear job spec, zero accountability/appraisal or targets built in the contracts.

Their 2 year term expired shortly before conference.
You would think conference would be the perfect opportunity to appraise their effectiveness (media appearances/campaigns/elections/work completed/value for money).

Again, no mention at conference.
Members asked, and again we were met with silence.
Had this been discussed & financial reports submitted we wonder what members would have said?

We'd also like to credit @BPAS1968 and @PregnantScrewed for their incredible campaigns which WEP took part in but now seem to be taking credit for
An email to branch officers today says they have lost a 'small number' of members due to their stance on self-ID. I think we know it's more than a few. And beyond numbers, the calibre of women who can no longer give WEP their time and money is beyond incredible. What a loss.
We wanted to save WEP. They locked us out and smeared us. Now all the feminists have gone, they're left with holding their cap out to the gender ideology campaigners. What a betrayal of women.
This. Is. Where. We're. At.
