Jude lays down law on culture as he presents Turner Prize

Actor Jude Law accused the British government of “cultural vandalism” at last night’s Turner Prize ceremony, saying the introduction of an English baccalaureate would take “arts, design, and music” out of schools.

The prize was awarded to Elizabeth Price for her video installation show, which included a film inspired by a fatal fire in Manchester.

The Londoner was presented with the £25,000 (€30,000) prize by Law at Tate Britain in London.
