There needs to be a TV series that shoots for 52 weeks of the years. A training ground for real working-class producers, writers, and directors. Amplifying diverse voices and bringing authentic stories to the screen. F**k it, I’ll make it! Anyone wanna help??
New research exclusively seen by Channel 4 News shows just 1 in 12 creatives working in TV and Film in England, Wales and Northern Ireland are from working class backgrounds. Actor Samira Ahmed says her experience of drama school made her realise "you need connections".

🧵 about #class #privilege and #privateeducation. Watching the Olympic swimming last night and Clare Balding said something in such an incredulous tone which summed up the establishment perspective and how their experience differs. 1/

The Tories signed away billions of pounds worth of contracts to fraudsters and failed to deliver for our NHS. @RachelReevesMP will return stability to our public finances.

Just back from my oldest kid’s emotional leaving assembly. Parents and kids were in tears over saying goodbye. Only mums and girls cried though,dads and boys felt it too but society says they can’t show it. No wonder male mental health issues are so high.#MensHealth #EndStigma

Cutting tax breaks means more money for state schools, which can help with overcrowded classes and tight budgets. It's about fairness, not envy.

No other industry lets a single company hold such a monopoly, charging job seekers even if they don't get work. This practice excludes performers from poorer backgrounds. #equity #spotlight
🚨 SPOTLIGHT UPDATE 🚨 This morning eight Equity members filed papers at the High Court in a class action against Spotlight. #TaxOnHope Find out why 👇 https://t.co/6o6lDZ2Fd2

Shout out to horror film buffs!! I was traumatised by a horror film I think from the 1960’s when I was a kid. All I remember is a pregnant woman who they said was a witch had stones laid on her till she died. What’s the film? @KermodeMovie #horror #folkhorror

This is the shift we need in politics.
Based on Labour’s shadow cabinet, 84% went to comprehensive schools, 10% went to private schools and 6% to state grammar schools. That would mean for the first time the cabinet closely reflected British society.

At the recent hustings I was asked why should people trust me and my party. Here’s my answer. I believe in serving with honesty and integrity and this is exactly what I would do if I am elected. #GeneralElection2024

Tech-savvy creatives should develop a non-profit alternative to Spotlight to see if industry gatekeepers genuinely care about equality in acting. #spotlight #equality #actors
We have grave concerns about Spotlight’s latest price hike. Since 2023, Equity has explored legal routes to challenge unreasonable fees charged by casting directories. A full update will be given to the new Council next Tuesday 9th & members updated on progress later that week

The first director I worked on my first ever film. Lads from the North and Midlands. The struggle is real!
Met with an industry “professional” today who, upon hearing I'm from the north, responded with utter disdain. Despite not reviewing any of my work, they labeled me an inexperienced director What I’ve done as an “inexperienced” filmmaker #workingclass #film #northern

“I’m sat here baffled that you can talk about serious youth violence as if your party isn’t responsible for services stripped to their bones. At best your Party’s been incompetent, at worst negligent & you are directly responsible for the increase in loss of life” #bbcqt
