Amazed to see that in the Elizabeth Line @elizabethline station at Bond Street all the platform signs have been changed to Burberry Street presumably in some murky marketing deal. No indication this is a joke. Wilful disregard for anyone using the line! @tfl do you allow this?

There's no corner of music-making in the UK that hasn't at some time been impacted positively by Dartington Summer School. That this 75 year legacy is under terminal threat is shocking. I ask my erstwhile colleagues on the Trust to ponder the question: What is Dartington for?

For the last 5 years Arts Council England has lectured everyone that excellence is elitist and relevance is all. Now, suddenly, excellence is back. Why? With Mary Archer leading a government review of its use of public money, could ACE be running scared? thestage.co.uk/opinion/why-do…
