Unfotunately that is the bottom line whether I like it or not and much as I have to grit my teeth saying it I am going to have to join.
I am all for standards and do follow them but the IFA are not the only ones out there developing standards and involved in consultations (lets not forget the CBA and EH both organisations have worked hard behind the scenes and perhaps dont shout so loudly about what they do).
I wonder how the IFA will develop when it gets an influx of people joining who hate its current structure and its lack of upholding of its own standards. Could be interesting, the inside of the tent could get very wet:face-huh:
