Manchester-based RISE have just published a report on the impediments & discriminations suffered by working class artists & art workers.... which includes this brilliant summation from one interviewee:

'Its not a meritocracy, its a mirrortocracy'.

Commissioners & institutions hand out money to those who look (and speak/act) like themselves, reinforcing the class dimension of the UK arts scene!

Its more than this but this a big factor!
