When I want “expert information” on the EU, I make it a practice to contact the performing arts folks. They have a “brain trust” that’s hard to fathom!

Brexit is common sense.

The alternative is nonsense.

The ancient Romans, some of the hardest, savage, and most libertine people ever known, thought that actors were the scum of the earth.

...Brexit would "damage" the creative industry.

I am trying hard to understand the rationale behind this. I'm not sure how the EU in and of itself supports any of the creative arts, unless they are talking arts grants, and they could easily be duplicated by an independent Britain, and probably much easier and cheaper.

By definition creativity cannot be regulated, so I don't see how the flow of ideas between Britain and Europe would be affected by an EU withdrawal. By any objective measure Britain is a net culture and creativity exporter. The creative input we get from from Europe is not very extensive at all - it is certainly dwarfed by what we get from America.

In short, I suspect these 300 "artists" are just fabricating a threat to their industry to push their own political agenda.

makes sense, i should vote because people who ‘act’ in movie roles as intelligent fake characters know best. their skill is reading a script and doing as they are told...definitely we should listen to them on issues like political unions.

there is that tv programme that interviews actors, the actors studio...i suggest you watch some of that. now an again you get one that is intelligent...for the most part they are dumb as a box of rocks and remember this programme is showing the BEST answers.

i remember the inteview with (i think) either de nero or dustin hoffman, maybe both —they were horrible, embarassing, grim, they could barely string a sentence together that was coherent...id be surprised if they could spell their own name without a script... but hey...lets take their political views and make them our own— after all they might have acted as a president or something...also most of these people worked in coffee shops and restaurants beforehand...you may as well ask a barista what way to vote— that makes as much sense.

Liberals who care less about their country than they do for their careers and incomes. Just like big unions in the US.

Each of them gets one vote, right?

BREXIT! To repudiate insane EU immigration policies. Stop being a vassal of Germany and insane Angela Merkel born and raised in communist East Germany.
