.@CPJElmore is absolutely right - despite their rhetoric the Government have not been helpful on touring visas, the industry has been left to lead the way themselves and make arrangements with their Spanish counterparts👇 #DCMSQuestions

This change is welcome but it was NOT because of the government. Industry have worked with their Spanish counterparts. The government has been completely useless on touring and there are still issues to resolve for performers in Spain. https://t.co/uDe8sQmbxS

We care deeply about the independence and impartiality of the BBC. It seems the Secretary of State also cares – to the extent that she actually has the time to police the BBC Political Editor’s tweets and publicly rebuke her. #DCMSQuestions

At #DCMSQuestions I asked why the Government won't include criminal liability for senior tech executives in their #OnlineSafetyBill. Why won't they follow calls from @UKLabour and the @NSPCC to protect children properly online?

At #DCMSQuestions the Secretary of State refused to confirm that the forthcoming Online Harms Bill will contain criminal sanctions for tech execs after multiple breaches. These sanctions are vital to ensure safety, trust & transparency online - this just isn't good enough.

Culture is a key part of our national heritage and identity but professionals are leaving the sector and venues closing. Where’s the Government’s plan for its future? #DCMSQuestions

Still no answer about when we will get the government's response to the online harms white paper. It's just not good enough #DCMSQuestions

@Stuart_McDonald raising the fact that many self-employed workers are not covered by SEISS, and asks the Minister to work to close the gap. Government figures show 1/3 freelancers have not been supported by SEISS. It's vital that this gap is closed. #DCMSQuestions

@MrJohnNicolson raising the importance of having unbureaucratic ways for EU music workers to come to the UK and UK music workers to go to the EU after the end of the Brexit transition to ensure that festivals and live music flourish. #DCMSQuestions https://t.co/9inhzkCKEo
