Michael Dobbs, a Conservative member of the British upper house of parliament who wrote the original British 1990s series "House of Cards," says Britain's creative industries are booming "because of the talent that is in Britain's DNA," and not because of the EU. Underscoring the artists' message, Prime Minister David Cameron mingled Friday with stars from the Remain camp during a visit to London's Abbey Road Studios, where the Beatles once recorded.Ĭameron has warned that leaving the EU would damage Britain's economy, but those campaigning to leave argue it will save money and give Britain greater control over immigration.īrexit-backers include actor Michael Caine and singer Roger Daltrey of The Who. 1 2 Daltrey's hit songs with The Who include 'My Generation', 'Pinball Wizard', 'Won't Get Fooled Again', 'Baba O'Riley' and 'You Better You Bet'. He is a co-founder and the lead singer of the rock band The Who. "Leaving Europe would be a leap into the unknown for millions of people across the UK who work in the creative industries, and for the millions more at home and abroad who benefit from the growth and vibrancy of Britain's cultural sector," the signatories say. Roger Harry Daltrey CBE (born 1 March 1944) is an English singer, musician and actor. One in six music albums sold in 2015 was by a British act, and UK actors regularly headline Hollywood films, according to the British "Phonographic Industry."

"From the Bard to Bowie, British creativity inspires and influences the rest of the world. The signatories say many creative projects "would never have happened without vital EU funding or by collaborating across borders."

Signatories to the letter include "Sherlock" star Benedict Cumberbatch, "X-Men" superhero Patrick Stewart, Jude Law, Keira Knightley, Kristin Scott Thomas, Chiwetel Ejiofor and Helena Bonham Carter.
