On December 3rd, a bill in parliament would ensure that music streaming paid creators a fair share of revenues, using Equitable Remuneration. This would make for a fairer system for all. We would encourage members to write to their MP asking them to support
Kevin Brennan MP’s Copyright (Rights and Remuneration of Musicians, Etc.) Bill.
Personal letters are best, introduce yourself and tell them what you do for a job and why their support for this bill is important to you. An example of what you make from streaming royalties in a year versus physical might also be helpful. Remember to include your full name and postal address so that they know you are a constituent. https://www.writetothem.com/
