Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah is our client and we are proud to represent her. This cancellation is unjustifiable, morally and legally.
Authors withdraw from festival after Palestinian Australian author dropped
After Randa Abdel-Fattah was dropped from Adelaide Writers' Week by the Adelaide Festival Board, a slew of authors, including Michelle de Kretser, have withdrawn from the event.

As a former Director of Adelaide Writers' Week I am appalled that the Adelaide Festival Board has rescinded Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah's invitation to the 2026 AWW, explicitly linking its decision to the shattering crimes in Bondi.

A shocking decision that will and should have far-reaching consequences.

It’s going to be an interesting few weeks when the royal commission examines, as I suspect it will, the defraying of social cohesion caused by the organised censorship of writers, artists and employees across the country for daring to speak against an unfolding genocide

94 seats Armstrong . Suck it up .
Your undermining of Albanese stinks of your work back at your old Sky job .
You are so obvious and wearing thin pet .
Calling a royal commission is just the start of Albanese's leadership test
The prime minister's critics feel he failed to meet the moment in the immediate aftermath of the Bondi attack, but with the royal commission he has a chance to get it right.

“Strip away the chest-thumping rhetoric and the familiar justifications, and what remains is uncomfortable in its simplicity: a unilateral act of war, ordered by one man, without democratic consent, against a sovereign country that posed no imminent threat.”

I found the ABC'S coverage very anti-Albanese, as if he had pulled the trigger. PM Albanese has expressed his sorrow, regret, and offered condolences....but 'apologise'???
Wtf for??
Someone tell the LNP and associated media to stop politicising such a horrific crime.

Albanese has I think showed very strong leadership in the wake of the Bondi massacre. Has not attempted to self aggrandise as others have, has stayed out of the gutter politicking by Ley and Frydenberg. Got on with tightening gun laws.

Frydenberg’s statements blaming Bondi terrorist attack on Albo are outrageous. Extremism and radicalisation exists in every society. Frydenberg and everyone else - inc. News Corp - who are using a devastating terrorist attack to score political points against Labor should be ashamed of themselves

Ah yes, the *checks notes* tens of thousands of Australian families who marched for peace, and the *checks notes* two gunmen who perpetrated a massacre.

The same "they"...
Sussan Ley out there fostering hate and division. The Liberal Party has not learned one lesson from its election loss. They only now appeal to extremists.

Using the “first they came for” lines is so fucking gross.

Also her team putting in “applause” is truly pathetic.

PM's first duty is to lead. His second is to explain
Anthony Albanese's first responsibility after the horrific Bondi terror attack is to lead a grieving nation. His next will be to explain how this happened.

ABC News across the board going hard on the doom & gloom, displaying a graph of inflation figures for just the past 6 months to suggest a rampant upswing.

Versus a graph showing inflation since Labor came to govt, showing this is a slight uptick after a big decline.
