It is the UK, 2023. Someone non-violently protesting & using non-compliance as part of that non-violent protest is met with police violence & infliction of extreme pain. I am absolutely terrified & if you are not then you need to wake up. I really, really hope this man is ok.

People need to let go of their defences of Edinburgh Fringe. People need to stop saying "yes, BUT [insert x, y z reason why Edinburgh Fringe is good & useful]". THEN we can have a conversation. More coming.

@TarekIskander1 1/ I so badly want to have this conversation and agree - radical rethink needed and this is opportunity (whilst forced) to do that. I would add that we need to question what 'reducing activity' looks like. One of my major concerns post pandemic is the intense rush back into

Well that's the most attention I've ever had for a single thing on twitter. Almost trumps that time I got retweted by @GaryLineker for an event I was organising about government failure to support arts & sports in education. Almost but not quite. It is Gary.

Are you tired of environmental protesters getting in the way of your evil plans to make money by causing the deaths of millions of people? Why not spend some of your ill-gotten gains paying the huge fees of @NLawGlobal to get you an injunction to stifle all those pesky protests?
