More than 25% of #uk #musicians lost all their work in the #EU following #brexit. Most than 45% say earnings from tours have fallen and 59% say that touring in #Europe is not viable.
In addition the Creative Europe funding programme stopped in the UK. Music supports about 220,000 people in the UK.
Yet another reason #Brexit was a huge lie told by liars like #Farage #tice #johnson #gove and similar (fill word in here).
As a parent of two kids sitting their SATs today under the most difficult of conditions having lost their beloved grandpa on Saturday, but also having spent a year of being force fed a diet of almost exclusively grammar and maths, I don’t feel much optimism for Britain’s kids.
The education system for teachers and kids crashed and burned under the #Tories #Gove. #Labour has changed nothing.
Schools and universities are failing everyone. A technocratic expensive failure is what I see.
Who put this cokehead on the panel of the Orwell Prize?!

Even now all the usual suspects #Gove #Dorries etc. try to reframe #BorisJohnson's gross incompetence / negligence. Bereaved families are having none of it and looking into holding the career criminal personally responsible for 1,000s avoidable deaths.

Nadine Dorries and Michael Gove have led attempts to undermine the damning report by Heather Hallett after it found inaction by Boris Johnson’s government may have cost 23,000 people their lives
“We need to stop trusting the experts” he says, and “You can do the drug approvals very, very quickly with AI.” I meant to insert some kind of quip here, but … I simply can’t. https://gizmodo.com/rfk-jr-says-ai-will-approve-new-drugs-at-fda-very-very-quickly-2000622778

As disgusting as this is I am, as ever, waiting patiently for #Mone #Harding #Gove and the rest of the #VIPLaneCrime mob to get the punishment THEY deserve. Covid conman lied about £1m company to get his hands on £50K government cash https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/covid-conman-lied-1m-company-35445505
