Sign the Petition for Free Movement for Musicians post-Brexit #WorkingInTheEU

Sign the #WorkingInTheEU petition to call on Government and Parliament to back free movement for musicians post-Brexit. It only takes a couple of minutes, and can make a really big difference to our campaign.

Kevin Brennan MP supports free movement for musicians working in the EU
Sign the #WorkingInTheEU petition to call on Government and Parliament to back free movement for musicians post-Brexit.
 
Being able to tour and travel to work is vital to many musicians’ careers. And before the EU gave us free movement in its member states, travelling in Europe was tough; expensive, heavy on the admin, and time-consuming.
 
That’s why we’re fighting for free movement for musicians working in the EU, with minimum administrative burdens. 
 
Add your voice to the call. Sign our petition via Change.org.
 
Signing the petition and sharing it on social media only takes a couple of minutes, and can make a really big difference to the campaign.
 
We will be sending the petition straight to Number 10, as well as to the leaders of all the main political parties, and the Ministers and Shadow Ministers for both Brexit and Culture.
 
Is your MP from the Labour Party?
 
We’ll be at Labour Party Conference from Sunday 24 – Wednesday 27 September.
 
Write to your MP asking them to visit us on Stand 132, where they can find out more about why free movement matters and sign the pledge to protect it.
 
Here’s how to do it:
  • Find out who your MP is via Write To Them
  • Use the email tool to write to your MP
  • Ask your MP to visit us on Stand 132 at Labour Party Conference
Is your MP from a different party?
 
If your MP hasn’t signed  the pledge to protect free movement for musicians, that’s okay. There’s still time to ask them to take action.
 
Find out who your MP is via Write To Them, and use the email tool to write to your MP. Send them this link to our free movement pledge and ask them to sign.

Over 100 MPs and Peers have already committed to protecting musicians’ right to move freely and easily in the EU after Brexit. That’s thanks to you – MU members writing to their MPs and asking them to support musicians working in the EU.
