No question,

I would ask for help conserving our traditional craft skills.

My MP raised this in the House of Commons last week a short quote.

"It seems that only once these crafts are dead do they come under the remit of the heritage industry, as their products find their ways into museum displays and people take pride in their conservation and celebrate their memory. Why can we not give the same attention to the ailing small industries that create these iconic objects? Are not the skills as worthy of conservation as the products that they create? We assess the relative importance of protecting, preserving and finding new life for older buildings that we see as part of our heritage: why should we not take a similar approach to heritage craft skills, and allocate a budget to do so?"

Aye and check if it locks.

 

[AJB]

How about:

"...and what do you do?"

That's what she asked me at a station visit in 1994. I was so tempted to say "Don't you know, ma'am? I work for you!"...

...but, alas, I didn't have the balls and it may well have ended prematurely a promising career in the Armed Services.
