There are too many BRCA members who would rather sit at home and complain about decisions made by the BRCA instead of going to the AGM and taking part in the decision making themselves. Many complain about BRCA committee members yet never volunteer for the jobs themselves even though they think they could do it better.

If something is a great success... the individuals that represent the BRCA are to be praised. They give up so much of their time etc. etc.
If something is a failure... it's the BRCA membership as a whole that are to be blamed. You vote on the rules etc. etc.

Yes, the BRCA membership is "to blame" when they vote to do something that fails, in the same way the BRCA membership is also "to blame" when everything goes well.
What have "the BRCA" done that's failed in your eyes, should an individual be to blame and be removed from the committee or from an individual clubs committee if they messed up?
If someone goes out of their way to help the hobby then do you not think they should be thanked for their efforts?
