Love your great work on Ark. I’m with StopAdani Kooyong, in Melbourne Australia. We’ve been pushing Ark as “our” Lloyds insurer for a while now with ACF Chisholm (neighbours) and recently StopAdani Albury Wodonga (far north of our State, Victoria, on the Murray River). We’ve got an on-line action hour planned for March 29th, also targeting White Mountains, Ark’s majority owners. It would be great to work together.
