Yes things do come across in a very blunt way sometimes on the net, but in truth don't think I could have avoided it because this is how some threads seem to run on here.

I am certainly not expecting everybody to have an opinion that agrees with mine, not at all, but feel that because my opinion doesn't match that of others I am in the firing line. No matter though.

I have said why I think that creativity is important, especially in the younger end of education.

However I still stand by what I said when I said
'people are unaware of how the cuts in art funding will affect their lives'
being unaware of something or being ignorant to something is the same thing. I wasn't using ignorant as a derogatory term. So apologies if it caused offense.

You didn't reply to my earlier question. (Posts 74 and 81.)

As you have such an indepth insight into how the cuts will affect the arts, particularly in education, making you not 'ignorant', unlike the rest of us, how have you gained this knowledge? Were you professionally involved?
