Museum Strikes

If you're visiting one of London's leading museums today or tomorrow, be warned that some of its galleries may be closed, due to strike action by members of the Public and Commercial Services union (PCS). The National Gallery, the National Portrait Gallery, Tate Britain, Tate Modern, The British Museum, Natural History Museum, Science Museum and the V&A are all likely to be effected (CLICK). Blame Government and the Brit. Anti-art Establishment. They're prepared to waste millions of pounds commissioning Turner Prize winners to create facile rubbish, but refuse even to negotiate with the staff who guard our real treasures! (How much is the Venice Biennale costing us?
