That's what I mean - this issue goes way beyond NPG into how arts
institutions are funded and sustained, which is why the NPG or people
therein may believe they're really fighting for their lives and we
threaten that. And if the NPG doesn't think that, other galleries may
think that. And they may be right, if their funding's really bad.
