The reason why Kerri and I were the ones to meet with Amy and her colleagues is because we are in the dialogue team and believed it was the right thing to approach you considering the levels of disruption Animal Rising are causing, not because we take a leading role in the demonstrations. I apologise for not making that clear before and causing confusion. I fully understand how, by virtue of the fact that we were at the meeting, and because Amy is naturally unfamiliar with our organising structure, she would have perceived us as the leaders of demonstrations. Please let me know if you are willing to make this amendment. I am otherwise happy that the minutes are an accurate reflection of the conversation, and I thank Amy for recording them. Though I do note that as a summary some parts/details of the conversation have been omitted, and some parts of the reported minutes are more interpretation than plain reporting "we were able to robustly push back on all points".If we have time before Friday we may provide an alternative set of minutes which can act as a supplement to these. If There are other things which I would contest from witness statements, such as the claim in paragraph 32.2 of Dickon White's witness statement that we put the horses, jockeys and ourselves at risk of serious harm, and other claims about the welfare of horses in racing, but I believe the appropriate place for that is in the courtroom.
With care,
Dan
