I was thinking about this earlier and you are dead right about rumours, opinion and half-truths! That is exactly why the fairest and most unbiased way for Mick to defend himself is through the process of an independent investigation and appeals process. This is exactly what the ICU are attempting to carry out at present.
An EGM is the last place you will find unbiased opinion. We all know that an EGM will be filled with two opposing groups, both of whom have arrived to the meeting with a predetermined judgment about Mick based almost entirely on rumours, opinion and half-truths. No good can come of that!
The final judgement at this proposed EGM will be based around the size and voting power of each respective "posse" and little or nothing to do with the facts. I think we can all agree that this is not how modern justice should operate!
