# Tiger Douglas!
Not being on Twitter, I've only just noticed what a storm blew up around my Daily Telegraph article, A Critic's Plea: Stop All Arts Funding Now.
There have been newspaper articles about it and blogs. No less than the chief executive of the Arts Council weighed in with a column. I was even given my own hashtag on Twitter - #tigerdouglas, which makes amusing reading.
The nickname came from this brilliant send-up in Exeunt Magazine which you just have to read to the end. The tears of laughter are still rolling down my face!
