Posting this at Pip Torok's request:
Pip Torok: Hi Jamie, I've given this much thought.
Pip Torok: I resign from the post of Chancellor, effective from 8am SLT 19th July 2008.
Pip Torok: For me it is important that this dispute be settled quickly and cleanly, well before the end of the Chancellor's term of office.
Pip Torok: To those who feel that I have been wronged in this whole affair, I have this to say: I do not feel wronged. I appreciate the feeling of those who feel that way, but assure them that my wish to see justice done overrides everything. I hope that the RA are able to come to a conclusion that they, after consideration, feel that they can accept.
Pip Torok: Sincerely, Pip Torok
Regards Jamie P
