@lisanandy.bsky.social the ironic impact of Access to Work changes is also devastating for the huge freelance culture sector. Please reconsider!!!
I’m profoundly sad to say that as of today, I’ll no longer be able to do my job as co-artistic director of #Touretteshero because of a recent decision by #AccessToWork to cut my support by 61%. Read & share this post, the hardest I've had to write: www.touretteshero.com/2025/05/23/a... 1/4

Even in quotation marks, ‘generosity’ feels like a very odd thing for the Audience Agency to call supporting art form development. That, and inherent risk taking, are essential for our sector’s future. It’s nothing to do with benevolence.

This Government understands the importance of the creative industries to the UK.

That's why Lisa Nandy MP is announcing today a £60mil package of support to drive growth in the sector, including £40mil of investment for start-up video game studios, British music and film exports.

Is it just me or is it a total coincidence that after angering the racist MAGA base with his support for H1B visas & Indian IT workers, Musk suddenly became obsessed in recent days with demonizing Pakistanis in the UK & is now winning back the praise of the racist far right?

New in PN: No, Trump wasn't "confused" about the New Orleans attack

"He spread the lie that the attacker was an immigrant because it advances his political goals. He wants to harm immigrants and smearing them as violent criminals is a way to build support for massive human rights violations."
