support for the IFA should be deserved, not just given because it seems the least-bad option...
it will be as strong as its membership make it IF it is willing to clearly oppose vested interests that negativley impact the long-term future of the archaeological resource and its derived research....
BAJR was never intended as a governmental consultative body...was it?
More a place for archaeologists and interested parties to engage with each other...
shame on us all Clarke and Cameron get the chance to share a cabinet...if they do they will have comprimised thier alleged 'principles' for the sake of personal and political gain...is that what is wanted for the IFA?
