		Hugo Swire, the shadow arts minister, points out that, contrary to what we said in a report, Visitors flock to museums without charges, page 8, December 28, the Conservative party is not "demanding" that foreigners be charged to visit museums in Britain.
		Mr Swire was simply trying to highlight an anomaly brought about by forcing UK museums and galleries to scrap entry fees, while British people continue to pay for museum entry in other countries.
		The response from the Conservative party was to pledge that a future Tory government would allow museums to charge if they want to, and to demand that foreign tourists be charged for seeing English museum treasures.

		Tony Blair’s government has been accused of reneging on promises made in 1997 that it would not raid the National Lottery initially set up as an independent funding source for the arts, heritage, charities and sport, to supplement Treasury spending in other areas.

		Swire accused Labour of reaching “unprecedented levels of interference” in the arts, which he claimed was jeopardising creativity and artistic freedom in the UK.
