      Useful to see the questions. I don't agree that they're unduly leading. And I'm baffled. Of course question, but why discourage your natural allies?

      If natural allies only ever encourage each other they become cheerleaders for a team. I do think there is a need for clarifying standards & norms on responsible tax practice, but i'm not convinced on the FTM approach (some early thoughts https://hiyamaya.wordpress.com/2014/06/29/fair-tax-mark-duck-or-rabbit/ …)

      More broadly, v narrow governance & participation undermines credibility & content. Its not clear certification & consumer label model is right for this issue (ie. Fairtrade Mark style vs other models cf the Voluntary Principles on Security & HRs, Global Network Initiative etc)

      If certification & consumer label model is the one..... then got to have a serious approach to credibility, conflicts of interest. Being the standard setter, advisor, assurance provider, and the certifying body in one org is tricky (!) https://www.isealalliance.org/credible-sustainability-standards/iseal-codes-good-practice …

      When FTM says things like '1500 shops & offices have been accredited' people who are paying attention🙄 (FTM accredits companies not their shops & offices) or 😡 at misleading communication. Natural allies should not 🙌 everything, but also 🤔 and speak up.

      It will be 6,500 shops and offices by the end of the Fortnight, and close to £50bn of turnover.

      Since the accreditation applies to companies, not individual outlets & offices this would be the meaningful number to use. Can divide into big companies and small etc. But the 6500 number feels misleading. You risk loosing rather than gaining trust if people feel conned by claims

      Again, an outlier opinion which I suggest few would agree.

      Paul.original plan for 'modest growth' was 350 companies in 3 years. Current is c. 30? Suggests consensus of assumptions which supported initial projections were off. Thats ok. u try. u reflect. u iterate. Consensus in small group not a reliable guide https://fairtaxmark.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Fair-Tax-Mark-Community-Share-Offer-28-April-2014.1.pdf …

          Gotta give you that one Maya. Initial projections were overly optimistic. We'll be at 44 businesses end of month.

          I wonder if the (unexpected?) low take up is evidence that the business model is not one that businesses are buying into. In which case there are Qs on buy in and credibility/utility must be something to consider.
