Astonishing that the BBC @BAFTA could use a 2 hr delay to edit out the words Free Palestine & a message of support for migrants by a Black filmmaker as well as a homophobic slur, but a not a racist slur.
That isn’t “neutrality”. It’s selectivity.

Equity Council has voted to appeal last week's Spotlight ruling. Delegates at #TUC2025 have backed us today, concerned about the wider implications the ruling has for workers’ rights across multiple industries.
Equity is a trade union, and our core purpose is to fight for your rights at work and to access work.

I don’t usually get mad about auditions that don’t go my way. But I made an exception for this. #BothNotHalf

In 2025, we are disappointed to learn that productions are still casting just ALL white actors. This is not representative of the current pool, and does not reflect a true representation of our society or our industry.

Our very own @IrvineIqbal describes how we still have a problem with representation in the theatre. 👏
Data may suggest that diversity in on-screen casting is improving, but there remains a serious problem with representation in theatre, says @IrvineIqbal . It's time for less ‘tick-boxing’ and more conditions on public funding 👇 thestage.co.uk/opinion/defyi…
