 Are you sure this is an "unofficial use of the party emblem"?And have you seen the comment posted there:" Ian Williams 1 year ago"The Socialist Party of Great Britain is going to have to work on its YouTube presentation before anyone checks them out, let alone take their videos seriously. Maybe more time doing courses on making videos and less time at Speakers Corner, eh. "

Yes, according to the present EC's interpretation of Rule 17.Were you sure Vin's use of the emblem was 'unofficial' before you declared it so?

That was his reference to the videos on youtube before Vin's contributionBut it Sounds like a plan Judging by the comments received on this Video Ian would be pleased  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-HemZYkiXz4 Howard Moss for example described it as 'excellent' Wonder what Ian thinks of it?

Some members are making themselves look really daft over this nonsense about the 'unofficial' use of the party's logo. Who 'authorised' the use of the logo on the SPGB 1904 YouTube channel?https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSPGB1904Or on SPGB Twitter?https://twitter.com/officialspgb?lang=en-gbOr on leaflets like these advertising meetings?http://www.meetup.com/The-Socialist-Party-of-Great-Britain/photos/27223992/http://www.meetup.com/The-Socialist-Party-of-Great-Britain/photos/26785048/Or on street stall banners and display stands used by branches?http://www.meetup.com/The-Socialist-Party-of-Great-Britain/photos/26275224/#439919875I'll let you into a secret – it was the Executive Committee.  As a result of voting on the relevant 2016 Conference motion the EC instructed thus:-

June 2016 EC minutes wrote:

It was agreed to ask the Acting General Secretary to write to branches and committees to ask them to use the Party logo as voted.

645 views in less than 5 days. We have to take advantage of this technologyhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-HemZYkiXz4 Vin is preparing a video presentation to all members on this subject. He would appreciate contributions

Vin said Talk of outsourcing the production of an introduction video would be folly and in my opinion a wast of money. The last 'professional' video we produced was based on a 'green screen' background and 'talking heads'. It is easily reproducible by ourselves Or if an outsider is paid perhaps they should have a proven record  and portfolio eg   Spencer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipe6CMvW0Dgand his channelhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-qSbRLINXvZBZM6CpUMDzQ

That hurts its usefulness for the other companion parties.Reply  View all 5 replies  Reply    Samuel Morales Jr.1 day agoIn the World Socialist Party US, our capacity is so limited, it would be great to have material like this that wasn't SPGB specific. vin singer8 minutes agoAnd that's ironic because the SPGB don't want it. It's Executive Committee has disowned itReply   Samuel Morales Jr.4 minutes ago+vin singer I saw mention of that in the forums. Maybe you can produce a version for the WSP US? We don't have the skill set to make things like this.Reply

that's really interesting. A quick edit for the WSP US would n't be too difficult, would it?They would probably hav to provide their own voice over, but again that could be done quite easily with a script and a sound file from a US comrade who was ok to do it.Are you going to contact them and sort it out?Interestingly, if you posted it as an official WSM video, who would make the decision about that, the WSM has no EC.YFSTim

Whoa just before anybody reaches any hasty conclusions (again) just consider this is a suggestion from an individual member of WSPUS.  He's only representing himself not the US companion party.Caution is the watchword here in all due respects.

I thought contrition was the watchword. It seemed to be yesterday.I was merely suggesting that Vin contacts a comrade who is keen on his work and enquires as to whether the WSP US want to use it. As to caution, we've had 112 years to be cautious.

yes be careful Brian has no axe to grind with VIn

800 and odd views in less than a week. How does that compare to the work put into public meetings?not criticising public meetings as I have worked my arse off on them myself but we need to embrace different technologies 

[lindanesocialist]

vin said Timit is a matter of record Brian's distaste for Northe east branch. I could collect all his negative shit about us if you wish What would you call that in Newcastle, Geordie?
