I assume the organisers of the Canberra Writers' Festival are praying to all the festival Gods that ACT Labor and/or ACTPol take offence and crack-down on something in order to provide a similar boost in patronage. 🙏

Thanks again to another premier who should resign in shame #petermalinauskas #SAparli #Auspol #AdelaideWritersWeek @australianlabor.bsky.social
Tony Abbott and a few others, did not withdraw from the Adelaide Writers Week This demonstrates what values he has. www.thenewdaily.com.au/news/state/s... #AdelaideWritersWeek
The terrific @ronnisalt.bsky.social nails it as usual.
Australia is sliding into a very corrosive morass driven by moneyed interests and ethically compromised politicians.

4. The effect of speech on action
5. How we create hatred and its appropriate role in our world.
It has been a week of much heat. Hoping soon for a week that brings commensurate levels of light.

While the #AdelaideWritersWeek has been trashed by political interference and attempted censorship, the Jaipur Literary Festival 2026 lives on

Adelaide Festival apologizes to Dr. Randa Abdel-Fattah & cancels 2026 Writers' Week! A historic vindication for former Director Louise Adler. ✌️🇵🇸 🔴 Full details & Dr. Randa response in "Black cat24".

#AdelaideWritersWeek has been cancelled after the board's decision to ban Palestinian Australian writer #RandaAlFatteh after the board made clear that no critic of #ApartheidIsrael & its #GazaGenocide would be allowed to participate in the festival...

"He promoted the “whole idea of Writers’ Week” as being where we can “hear other perspectives, even if we don’t particularly like them”.

@drjuliabaird.bsky.social & Jeremy Fernandez hold an intelligent, nuanced, discussion on the #AdelaideWritersWeek fiasco
#Malinauskas reign is now untenable. having been advised not to, he did it anyway. The whole #AdelaideWritersWeek disaster is all on him. His Zionist handlers have brought down another Premier and stifled free speech in Oz. Won’t @australianlabor.bsky.social ever learn. #auspol
@PMalinauskasMP just told @mjrowland68 on #abc730 that he was seeking "tolerance and inclusion" by moving to exclude Randa Abdel-Fattah from speaking at the #AdelaideWritersWeek
#DontMentionTheGenocide
I like Malinauskas, but he has lost the plot over the Adelaide Writers’ Week. #ABC730 #AdelaideWritersWeek #AdelaideFestival
People constantly cry out, "I demand free speech!"
That's fine & all but I would respond simply by saying, "I demand you take responsibility for your free speech!"
Too many think they can spout off whatever they like into the ether & don't consider the consequences.

I haven’t always agreed with everything Premier Malinauskas said, but on this point on is just wrong!
I’m surprised that he doesn’t see how offensive his ‘logic’ is.
It’s actually bullshit, disappointing & dumb. South Australia will suffer the consequences by the loss of #AdelaideWritersWeek
