Who’s got time to read…
Britain’s ever-harsher welfare system means that now only the rich can afford to make art.<https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/may/29/britain-welfare-rich-…>
“Young artists in 2020s Britain are often caught-up in the “Kafkaesque” perfect storm<https://www.theguardian.com/society/2023/may/26/universal-credit-system-not…> of a punitive benefits system, an intractable housing crisis and an unforgiving work culture – all of which can leave very little time or space for creative experiments.” Sounds familiar.
