Yesterday I was honored to be a guest presentor for Writers Week at Waubonsie Valley High School.
Great to connect to my audience. Even had a few wonderful conversations with students after my talk. #writersweek
…aaand again, #Malinauskas demonstrates his supreme belief in Malinauskas. At least more see him for what many SA folk already knew. Sadly though, little #SAvotes opposition. I’ll still vote @greens.org.au & non-bigot Indies first #SAparli #Auspol #AdelaideArtsFestival #WritersWeek
Well and truly #busted!
Peter #Malinauskas .
This is a shocker!
IMO, he's misled everyone regarding his role prior to #RandaAbdelFatah being dropped from #WritersWeek.
Political suicide.
#Zionist #lobbygroups involved?
Must be an enquiry into who they are.

Time Peter #Malinauskus 2025 admitted that he screwed #Adelaide #WritersWeek 2026 up. Should have listened to Peter Malinauskus 2023.
How about big round applause for #AdelaideFestival Board having what it takes to make genuine apology & invite R A-F to 2027 #WritersWeek? Wouldn’t mind an apology from you either Peter Malinauskas? How about it? Wipe slate clean. Press reset.
@latingle.bsky.social & John Lyons stellar figures in Australia’s govt broadcaster ABC. Churn out reliably high quality material. Both invited speak 2026 #Adelaide #WritersWeek. Both withdrew when invitation to Dr Abdel-Fattah rescinded.Now both being hounded.Support them. @squigglyrick.bsky.social
Appropriate apology to Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah and appropriate invitation to speak at 2027 #Adelaide #WritersWeek
“Adelaide Festival Corporation has apologised to author Randa Abdel-Fattah and says she will be invited to speak at its next event in 2027”

Peter Malinauskas needs to resign. This is unacceptable from a Premier. #auspol #SA #WritersWeek @australianlabor.bsky.social @PMalinauskasMP #SALabor
Labor huge lead South Australian opinion polls October 2025 with next election due 21 March 2026. Premier Malinauskas probably assumes what happened in #Adelaide #WritersWeek won’t affect votes @paulbongiorno.bsky.social @squigglyrick.bsky.social

#Adelaide #WritersWeek 2026 cancelled! Huge price paid for ridiculous decision to withdraw invitation to Palestinian writer after Bondi Beach massacre. Diversity of opinions & free speech matter

#AdelaideWritersWeek 2026 has now been cancelled, and the entire #AdelaideFestival board is resigning (other than the council’s rep whose term expires in three weeks).

Sad to see Louise Adler resign from Chair of #Adelaide #WritersWeek but given her principled position on free speech, had no other option. Expecting decision 2026 AWW will be canceled

BREAKING: Peter Malinauskas rushes to show off his personalized rego on new South Australian license plates #AdelaideFestival #WritersWeek #Zionism #SouthAustralia #auspol #racism #islamophobia #royalcommission #antisemitism
Great IV, demonstrates once again why politics should stay the hell out of arts. Using coercive power to sway an “independent” board always, always ends in tears. #Auspol #writersweek
@timrichards @sister_ratched
Mali pushed to board, insider goss.

Still supporting this? #auspol
Thinking about the #AdelaideFestival #WritersWeek cancelling Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah because they prefer Zionism, censorship, and lies
...
Here is a Readings book shop link to Randa's available titles, including her latest, Discipline.

If I was a partner I’d be suing the state governments arse for this debacle bringing the state into disrepute #WritersWeekdebacle #WritersWeek #AdelaideFestival
Wonder if South Australia's Premier Peter #Malinauskas will also ‘have last minute scheduling issues’ at next election after #AdelaideFestival #WritersWeek fiasco over cultural insensitivity of banning Palestinian author?
www.abc.net.au/news/2026-01...
Dr. Randa Abdel-Fattah should be re-instated in #Adelaide #WritersWeek. She should not have supported 2024 ban of Thomas Friedman which went ahead. Big negative for SA Premier supporting 2026 ban on Dr. Abdel-Fattah
What odds are the bookies offering on the Adelaide Festival's Writers' Week being canned completely? Genuine question. Found a few bob in an old jacket pocket. #writersweek #AdelaideFestival
~ 100 people invited speak 2026 #Adelaide #WritersWeek now withdrawn after invitation to Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah withdrawn. In 2024 Dr Abdel-Fattah & some colleagues requested invitation to Thomas Friedman to speak at AWW be withdrawn & it was. What goes around ..

New SA licence plates coming soon. Replacing ‘SA the Festival State’ will be ‘SA the Zionist Enclave’ or ‘SA the genocide apologist state’. Order now.

11 former festival leaders labelled #AdelaideFestival board's decision [to withdraw invitation to Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah] "a grave mistake" which may have "far-reaching consequences for both the festival & #WritersWeek well into future" @squigglyrick.bsky.social

TLDR; Mali lied.
