So, with tolerance I will read your 'hanging' non-literally.

Correct.
I was not an elected member of the Executive.
If you read Malcolm's post on chesschat (and subsequent posts by me on another bb) you will see that I had handed my nomination to the Chairman (Geoff Keenan), but withdrew it when it became clear the Unity ticket would be unopposed. I was not elected to the position because I was not a nominee at the declaration point. I explained to the meeting that the rental arrangement put me in a position of conflict of interest. <I was not a member of the Unity ticket at any stage>.

If you relied on your interpretation of this then you should have checked the accuracy of your interpretation before making slurs.

And even more clearly, if you were about to embark on a slur then you should have checked all possible sources. You could have PMd me. Or, you could have sought the formal minutes of meeting to see who was elected what.

In summary, I did not resign because I did not nominate at the appointed time.

ps (Late edit). Bill has now withdrawn the slur and posted a new version.

I say thank you for removing the slur Bill.
