USA joining the Commonwealth. What do you think?

There are reports in the international media that plans are 'being discussed at the highest levels' of British government that the United States become an 'associate member' of the Commonwealth of Nations, earlier known as the British Commonwealth.  It is expected that this will be a major topic of discussion during President Trump's upcoming state visit to the United Kingdom.

For the USA to join the Commonwealth is a huge step and could lead to the creation of a new economic force against the expansionist plans of Russia and China, something that has never before been envisaged as a role of the Commonwealth which, unlike the United Nations, does not have a military wing.

Whilst, at this stage, the matter does not directly affect the Australian Constitution, it could well have an impact in the future.

It would therefore be appreciated if you could indicate whether or not you agree.

Thank you

The First Visit of a King to Australia

In two weeks’ time the King arrives in Australia and from information to date the King will be arriving in Sydney on Friday evening the 18^th October and will be resting for much of Saturday the 19^th and will probably travel to Canberra on Sunday the 20^th. He will be in Canberra on Monday the 21^st and then in Sydney on Tuesday the 22^nd, leaving our shores for CHOGM in Samoa sometime on Wednesday the 23^rd.

We are therefore going to need volunteers to be available from the 19^th to the 23^rd October to be mobilised once the itinerary has been confirmed. Matthew and Scott are handling Canberra and John Macauley will be in charge in Sydney. We will be advising contact details to those who volunteer. The Sydney volunteers will be operating from John’s office in Glebe.

Accordingly, if you have not already volunteered to assist, can you please give thought to doing so.
