BREAKING: 3 members of the Adelaide Festival Board have resigned after it refused to reverse its decision to rescind Dr Abdel-Fattah's invitation. No statement has been issued but their names have been quietly removed from the website.
Four people are now responsible for the ongoing crisis.

We got half a million signatures demanding a royal commission into the Murdoch press. It was ignored.
