I set up this blog to challenge the UK Government's nonsensical law against "glorifying terror" but it doesn't sppear to be working.

In an article in the socialist daily paper, the Morning Star, about the attack on civil liberties under the guise of anti-terrorism, UK barriester Liz Davies wrote about the necessity to defy these diktats, particularly addressing cultural workers: “Writers and artists should deliberately undertake a collective expression that qualifies as ‘glorifying terrorism’.”
Right on, I say. And since one of the final scenes in my play, Into the War Zone, will probably fall foul of Charles Clarke’s catch-all (even as amended) I’ll like to invite fellow cultural workers (not just writers and artists but also songwriters, dancers, musicians et al) to join me in putting together such a defiance.
This blog is devoted to this project. If you would like to take part, you can get in touch with me at writersco@blueyonder.co.uk.
