Feel for @lcfc, they have lost to 5 of the top 7 teams as it stands at the minute and going into the season serious fans wouldn’t have predicted a top 7 finish! #lcfc

Dear @demontforthall what part of your sustainability policy talks about making people drink out of plastic glasses! What’s wrong with the glass bottle the drink is provided with! It’s 2022 now….

Clients obviously didn’t hear the bit where Boris said ‘don’t cancel Christmas parties’. This is turning our industry off but without providing any support…

For the first time in 18 months we will be able to deliver “in-person” events again with no social distancing, QR codes, masks or COVID passports - AMAZING👍👍👍

Interested to see what happens to the #events industry. Will this studio still be needed, or will the kit be taken to venues from June???

Read the government guidelines last night. Seems to me that what we are in now is not a lockdown, it’s Tier 4 + schools closed! If it was a proper lockdown, garden centres would be closed for example. It’s stay at home, unless you need bedding plants!!

This weeks virtual event from the studio was seen by over 300,000 people. Virtual events are great, but I can’t wait to get back out to site and deliver events to an audience! #wemakeevents #premierevents

It’s not just a #clicker that @BorisJohnson thinks is unviable, it’s also video techs to get the slides to fit on the screen! There are lots of clickers available at auction at the minute from events companies that the government have forced to close! #WeMakeEvents

Was great to be out delivering an actual live event for a change!

The #wemakeevents campaign has been working its ass off to raise awareness for the #events industry and @BBCNews decided to focus on Pantomine Dames! Come on #media help raise the plight of our industry that has been shunned by the government.

I fully support the #WeMakeEvents campaign today. Our industry has been decimated by this crisis. With almost zero government support. We have been forced to close by @OliverDowden and not told when we can reopen again!

Why all the media fuss about hospitality venues having to close at 10pm. Event & Exhibition companies haven’t been able to open, let alone close early, since March and today told we can’t work for another 6 months! @BBCSimonJack #wemakeevents

Wonder how long it takes @realDonaldTrump to say that he really doesn’t know #SteveBannon that well. He might even “wish him well”

To everyone in the #events industry, this petition could be our best way to get some support. We have already been promised this by @RishiSunak in the House of Commons. We need 10,000 signatures, we are 10% of the way there in less than 24 hours! petition.parliament.uk/petit…

Can you help the events industry? We need 10,000 signatures on this petition in the next few days! It's a mammoth ask and will need sharing far & wide if we have any chance of success. The Chancellor explicitly promised us this support! petition.parliament.uk/petit… #WeMakeEvents

Must have watched this 20 times today. I was at that match and laughed out loud when it happened 😂. What a guy he is....

The events industry was assured that this week we would receive guidelines on when we could re-open. 6 hours to go....

Been thinking about @RishiSunak's Job Retention Bonus. It's not enough of an incentive to employers to bring staff back that at the minute they have no work for. It's just a bonus for companies that will be able to survive this crisis, not help those that are struggling now.
