Leftist propagandists, snouts in taxpayer’s pockets:

‘Last Saturday’s Sydney Morning Herald carried the program of the taxpayer subsidised 2013 Sydney Writers’ Festival – which will be held from 20 May to 26 May…
(Lists 60+ participants.)
….So there you have it. Some three score and more leftists/ left-of-centre types/ social democrats will address the 2013 taxpayer-subsidised Sydney Writers’ Festival.
And what about right-of-centre types and social conservatives?  Well, it seems that fewer than a dozen fit this category. That’s a balance of six to one. That’s your typical Sydney Writers’ Festival.  That’s your taxpayer dollar working for – well, you be the judge.’        Andrew Bolt
Effing parasites. Sneering, egotistical, unprincipled, unemployable, dishonest useless greedy leeches. And we have our money stolen and paid to the bastards.

    Wankers- none of whom could spin a good, ripping (non-pc) yarn! ;-)

  2. KG says:

    Of course not. One of the reasons they hated Bryce Courtenay so much was that he never took a cent of public money, was hugely successful and regarded the wanking pseuds with utter contempt. :lol:
    And how do you manage to write good stories without gummint assist, Os?

  3. Oswald Bastable says:

    On your own dollar! :mrgreen:

    • The Gantt Guy says:

      What is this heresy you speak, sir? Charges will be brought against you before the Writers’ Guild!

  4. KG says:

    I think Oswald should buy himself a pipe and a tweed jacket, Gantt, drink soy lattes and apply for a gummint grant.
    We could be his research assistants.

  5. KG says:

    No no! Oswald drinks the soy latte, Gantt, while we research and fortify ourselves with single malts. :grin:

  6. KG says:

    Well, I dunno. He did a lot of rooting and general hellraising, so maybe that was his secret? Latte power?

  7. KG says:

    Cuba in those days must have been a great place to hang out…..women, cigars and marlin fishing. What else could a man want?

    • The Gantt Guy says:

      Sounds like paradise. Until the fucking leftists showed up and ruined the party.

    • Oswald Bastable says:

      I had a look at marlin fishing here, but at two grand a day…

      • KG says:

        Nah, Os–just find a longliner to take you out past the Poor Knights. It’ll cost very little and those guys are better than the tourista rip-offs at finding fish. If you need a reel let me know and I’ll post one of mine to you.

    A lot of those authors- the ones that actually published book people still read and love many years after the authors have died- had very interesting lives and worked in the hard jobs- fishing, lumber jacking, oil rigs- they fought in wars, sailed through hurricanes and climbed mountains. They worked hard, played hard and had actually ‘been around’.

    And never got a degree in creative writing…

    • KG says:

      Exactly. People like Jack London and Ernest Gann, for example.
      But their work is “simplistic” and “not nuanced” doncha know…..
