The UK Nightlife and Music Industry is being simply left to one side and ignored. Whilst many are demanding action in the form of re-opening clubs and venues, it is apparent that this is some time away yet. If it is not sensible to open then a support package should be given to venues that are still unable to open. This support package should be of 3 measures. 1. Security from the threat of winding up. 2. Financial support in the interim. 3. The ability to change their trade temporarily.
