I was interested to hear Andrew Motion & Andy Burnham on the BBC Today programme the other morning about the arrangements for appointing the next poet laureate
Thinking I might add my twopennorth to the discussion, I went to the DCMS website
Only to find: There are currently no active consultations
A footnote to Andy Burnham’s press release however says that “The public is welcome to write to the DCMS with their thoughts on the future of the Poet Laureate’s role or with suggestions for candidates for the Laureateship”
But only by old fashioned snail mail, it appears
