The Cult of OPD (Other People’s Dosh)

It’s amazing what the Arts Mafia think they can get away with. I’ve just had a mailing inviting me to achieve “patron status” by making a generous donation (i.e. £50K plus) to my local Arts Bandits, who have ambitions to put on a ballet on stilts, of all things!

It’s supposed to be cutting edge and a biting comment on the state of society today (under the budget-cutting, gravy draining Tory Coalition implied but not actually said). I normally believe in anything for a laugh, but in this case, one is not amused. Not even a little bit.
