lazy journalism and detrimental bias.

When will the Press stop using CIRCUS and CLOWN as words to describe Political chaos and incompetence especially now.

the present PM and his administration are constantly being referred to or pictured and photoshopped as clowns.

CIRCUS throughout the world survives through the teamwork and dedication of the disparate collection of artists gathered to entertain the public,

they travel the world and everywhere they go they take their work ethics, principles and morality with them ,

Unlike Politicians and the Press they hold themselves to a higher standard, and many take their life in their hands every time they perform, the only thing the press and politicians take in their hands is a glass full of something alcoholic

Circus survives and grows because we are the epitome of a good responsible society that is tolerant of all, CIRCUS is not sexist or racist and every artist is judged by their work and nothing else, Would that todays political leaders followed our example.

In this time of uncertainty due to the pandemic the co-operation between circuses and artists to help each other has been amazing, The FB page Circus SOS started by David Hibling has been a beacon of hope during the last months and shows our community at it's best. We must not let the media

denigrate us with their lazy journalism

If you think I'm right please share or put your own post up, lets try and stop the press from using the words CIRCUS/CLOWNS in this derogatory manner.

If you see an instance in the press, social media or TV write an email and complain, copy and paste this post to them in the email.

Thank You
