UHC Goes Corporate

'Radical' Manchester arts collective UHC has given itself a corporate re-branding in a bid to attract a more upmarket clientelle.
The website now has that sparkly marketing sheen associated with designer-brand logos, with all the politics down-played. Activists have been concerned for some time about the collective's policy of charging campaigning groups for services such as designing flyers. UHC has also come under criticism for reinforcing the divide between 'artists' and 'non-artisits' - making 'art' a specialism that only the properly qualified are allowed to do (and get paid for).
UHC, where are your politics?
