This needed to be said!
Equity Councillor for Dancers @gen_say calls out elitism in the arts and creative industries, and explains why the low pay/no pay culture needs to end 💯

"The entertainments industry should reflect society.. but we don't see an industry accessible to all, we see an industry defined by those who can afford to be there"
Delegate from @EquityUK speaking in the debate on ending the low pay/no pay culture in entertainment.

Equity members! Our rulebook is the contract between @EquityUK members and the Union, and it’s not been fully updated in 30 years 😳
Your chance to vote will have landed in your inbox by now so vote YES today for a set of rules that makes sense for 2022!
Here to support the @LabourWomensNet sisters but those with a keen eye will recognise my shiny new @EquityUK pin badge too ✊🏻
Thank you to @Ms_SThompson and @gen_say (plus one!) for supporting the @LabourWomensNet stand at @WMLabour conference today! #littlefeministspersist ❤️
Best thing I’ve seen/ heard in years
This is one of the funniest pieces of live radio you’ll ever hear. And the animation adds an extra layer. #Radio #GerryAnderson

Stage Managers and Performers - it's your employer's choice whether to cancel your performance, but it's your choice as to whether you deem it unsafe to work. If you want further advice, then get your deputy to contact the Live Performance staff @EquityUK
Dancers! It’s hot out there 🥵 Remember though @onedanceuk and @EquityUK ‘s Fit to Dance Charter says studios spaces should always be below 24c. For more info check out the charter onedanceuk.org/wp-content/up…
Congratulations @LyndaRooke a victory for positive, forward looking campaigning and leadership ✊🏻

⚡️Think it’s not that important? It is! Your vote matters, the better the turnout, the stronger our union is and the more it can hold employers and the government to account⚡️
💥 P.S. I’m voting @LyndaRooke for President and think you should too 🟣✖️🙌

Great thread about why it’s important to VOTE in the upcoming @EquityUK elections. Deadline is looming so get your ballots posted!!
When making demands to improve working conditions / pay across all facets of this precarious industry, Equity will be asked what % of their members voted in their latest elections. The lower that % the less seriously the government/employer will take those demands.
