Ah, the life of a #Freelancer ... a thread:

A lot has happened since lockdown, so perhaps you'd be so generous as to let me spill the beans on everything I've been up to over a coffee:

I've been slowly updating and adding new content to my YouTube comedy channel. It would be great to get a few more subscribers on there to help unlock some of the features only available to the super popular.

I created children's YouTube show School's Out Comedy Club - bit.ly/SchoolsOutCome…

Through this I've hosted a few local & international live streams for various children's groups - Cubs, Brownies, Guides, Scouts, Schools, etc...

Get in touch if you'd like to book one.

The UK Arts & Culture scene has been dealt such a clinical, ‘perfect storm’ coup-de-grace from its own government’s policies that it’s becoming difficult to tell if much of the hardship inflicted is not intentional. #SaveTheArts
I suppose the first factor to take into account is:
1) For the most part, the Arts don’t vote Tory. By turning a blind eye to struggling Arts institutions/venues – letting them & the plethora of jobs/workers they support die – the Tories aren’t likely to lose many voters.
2) Bending over backwards to fudge the guidelines to allow pubs to open & the Premier League to operate, the Tories are pandering to their voting base demographic. By & large the voters who gave them their current majority in Parliament are not Opera-goers of Bruckner fans.
