Thread: At yesterday's governing council meeting for ISA, a motion was put forward calling for end to genocide, adoption of BDS, and commitment to aid in reconstruction of Gaza. The president blindsided us by declaring the motion out of order, denying any discussion or vote

good weekend for a bothy
