Great report from Louise Brown on musicians. Software engineers echo this: we too would like a mobility framework in place which works, not the restrictive TCA. Still waiting to hear back from my MP on points I raised.

5 years on from Brexit, there is still no workable solution to the creative touring crisis facing artists and crew wanting to tour the EU and conversely the UK.
We’re seen a 74% reduction in UK artists touring the EU, and with increasing difficulty obtaining US visas, the opportunities for UK

10 days to go before Carry on Touring host our 2nd UK/EU summit in Parliament.
5 years after Brexit, there has been little progress in trying to sort out the issues facing creative touring both to and from the EU.
Labour say they are the party of growth, yet the creative sector is on its knees.

Five years ago today, the Conservatives were handed another five years in power and a majority of 80 seats.
And this man, who now bleats about every one of their catastrophic failures, giftwrapped that term for them.
Never let Farage forget, he was their king-maker. ~AA

Watch the video, how can we stop this flipping nut jobs from getting into power and destroying people’s lives???
I can't remember the last time I saw something so beautiful. Astonishing. Heart breaking. Politically affirming.
I hope everyone will watch this video from Syria. Extraordinary, terrifying and hopeful moments.
It's a reminder of why we fight.
