GMB Congress size
The GMB’s annual congress, except when pandemics occur is defined by rule., Rule 8. It consists of one delegate per 1500 members and the delegates are appointed by the regions, 90% elected by the membership within Regions and 10% appointed by the Regional Committees, which are themselves indirectly elected bodies.

Millberget Chairs
I got myself a new office chair, I have been without for several months. I got a Millberget from Ikea; the price seems OK but delivery which of course has to be done at the moment is not cheap. I doubt they have reduced the price of deliveries to support us all during lockdown.
The instruction manual for its assembly is online at manuall.co.uk.
