General Election 2010: Final weekend of campaigning: Brown heckled during speech in Sunderland

General Election 2010: Final weekend of campaigning: Brown heckled during speech in Sunderland; - You might think I talk about things in economic terms, and of course I’m proud that our creative industries now account for ten per cent of Britain's GDP. They earn Britain billions internationally, and bring millions of visitors to Britain each year. But so much more than that, the arts inspire the best of our potential as human beings.

Why free museum entry matters. Why arts funding matters. And why today’s cultural manifesto matters. It contains proposals to extend broadband to every part of Britain while tackling online piracy, to begin a new biennial festival of Britain to showcase our nation’s best creative talent, to deliver greater freedom for our museums and galleries, and to support our world-leading film and video games industry.
