It's disgraceful.
Disgraceful that we're still spending taxpayers' money on the arts in the first place. I don't listen to classical music, go to art galleries, the theatre or ballet and I wouldn't been seen dead at any of the laughable artistic "happenings" that have been inflicted on Accrington recently. Call me a philistine if you want, but that's my choice, so why should my hard earned taxes be used to finance these activities?
Many of my tastes are minority interests (you won't hear any Wynonie Harris records on Radio One anytime soon
) but I don't expect others to subsidise my interests, so why should I subsidise theirs?
