Les:

what I meant by that was that since ( as a long suffering member of 
ASScap, ) they collect foriegn royalties as well as domestic ones 
supposedly on my behalf, it seems as though if anything affects the 
royalty rate in Britian, it will show up in what is collected for me in 
the foreign Royalty  payments ( which in general in my case, FAR exceed 
my domestic ones ) I don't know this, I just feel it might be the case 
..so I signed the petition.

Also: someone mentioned unions: I would like to state that due to many 
years of grinding out radio /TV music, my AFM pension payments pay me 
approximately 18K p/y  ..a stable figure that I can rely upon.

OTOH: ASScap payments are quite spotty , varying between 5K > 12K p/y ( 
and usually as I said, depending on my Foreign income )
