*Most important* IMO everything depends on #BBC being properly funded. They can’t take any more cuts. They can do much in terms of #creativeindustries, #skills, #technology - creating safer #socialmedia space, #AI but only if fully funded. Govt can’t demand more without more money. Thank you!

I am excited to announce that I have been offered a place on the ScreenSkills 2026/27 Trainee Finder Programme as a Production Office Trainee!

This… “People's work is not the government's to give away”. Remaining copyright protections from creatives who work in the UK so US billionaires can profit is a) immoral and b) economically illiterate. The #CreativeIndustries are a jewel in the UK’s economy.

Generative AI Could Deepen Inequality, Revenue Losses in Creative Industries UNITED NATIONS, February 25 (IPS) - As generative artificial intelligence (AI) rapidly expands across nearly every sector of society, those that work in cultural and creative industries are expected to bear some of the greatest losses. With AI-generated content projected to dominate global markets in the coming years, combined with a lack of strong regulatory frameworks to protect intellectual property and AI’s ability to produce content quickly at a low cost, the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) warns that generative AI may become a major driver of inequality, threatening the livelihoods of millions of cultural workers around the world.

Higher education is worth more than a single measure I’m exhausted with this. A politician appears on television, cites a data point and proposes a policy. Nobody asks what the data actually…

The Conservative proposal to cut 100,000 university places uses loan repayment data as proof degrees lack value. It isn't. It measures the funding model we chose.
