The live music map shouldn't be postcode-dependent. We all know that some of the greatest scenes in UK music history have come from all over the nations, in all sorts of pockets in the North, South, East, West, and Midlands.

Our Annual Report highlights the stark truth that 59% of grassroots music venues no longer receive regular national touring shows. Whole regions - towns and cities with millions of people - have effectively vanished from the UK’s touring map.

UK tourist Becky Burke was arrested by ICE in the USA and kept in handcuffs and chains for 19 days before being deported back to Wales.
Her 'crime', doing unpaid work in return for accomodation (which isn't illegal).
