If you were an appreciator of opera, you'd be entirely supportive of the WNO. Didn't they bring the ring to Britain? That's not something you'll see for another 10-20 years. Pretty important. There's as many British opera writers as anywhere else in Europe, they're just often not as good. Strokes/ folks, that sort of thing.
