PUBLISHING INDUSTRY CONTRACTS - It can be very hard for new illustrators entering the profession to get their heads around things like what they should and shouldn't expect to find in a contract. It certainly was for me starting out. I wanted to write a short (long) #thread...

Government assistance for employed people during #COVID19 is up to £2,500 per month. For the self-employed, it is £376 per month. There are 5 million self-employed people in the UK. @BorisJohnson, @RishiSunak - please announce measures to help them now.

This is a very welcome announcement for employed workers. I am afraid it appears inadequate for the millions of self-employed, gig economy workers. £92 per week UC I make it.

The government's guarantee to cover a proportion of employed people's wages is a welcome and important move - but what about freelancers and the self-employed? And will the government step in to support those who have already been fired by their employers this week?

Let me add my voice to the justifiably outraged clamour of those furious at the govt for insisting hospitality and entertainment industries shut down without legally mandating them to do so, meaning they can’t claim insurance. Staggeringly reckless.

👾 We understand that these are turbulent times for freelancers, but we must try and keep a clear head. 💆 You can claim financial support if you are sick or self isolating. Have a look at some key points in the UK Budget which may be relevant to you: soo.nr/keMO
