After a hellish year, very chuffed to be graduating ("in absentia") with a distinction from my MA Art & Social Practice @ThinkUHI 🥳I'll hopefully publish some of my final project/dissertation online if it's interesting to folk...

Lecturers jobs are at risk at UHI Shetland. These cuts will be devastating for lecturers, for students, and for the wider community! @EISFELAShetland #CollegeCutsKillCommunities Join me in taking action by signing their petition: https://t.co/zkeJB21eUN via @megaphoneuk

@CalSleeper Thank you!

[Charlotte Chairlad Mountford @ChippedRedNails]

@CalSleeper Thanks for getting back. So even if travel cot can fit on floor it is not allowed? This contradicts previous advice (screenshot below) so just want to double check thank you

Arts funding is Scotland is dire. I wrote a poem ‘Shoestring’ because that’s how it is.

[Campaign for the Arts @_CFTA]

NEW: The Campaign for the Arts has launched a petition, urging @AngusRobertson and the Scottish Government to deliver the £6.6m they promised to Creative Scotland in February.

Especially now, Scotland's arts and culture needs backing, not broken promises.

🚨🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🚨🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🚨
Shocking news: the Scottish Government is breaking its promise on arts funding.

In February, thousands joined our campaign to speak out against a £6.6 million cut to Creative Scotland.

It worked. Ministers abandoned the cut.
But now they're bringing it back.

[Women for Refugee Women 🧡 @4refugeewomen]

🚨 BREAKING:

In a speech later this afternoon, it is expected that Suella Braverman will claim that ‘simply being gay, or a woman, and fearful of discrimination in your country of origin’ is not sufficient to qualify someone for protection.

This is absurd.
