For years now, Kristin and I have been the grateful recipients of John and Susie Menadue’s daily online bulletin of informed and expert opinion, Pearls & Irritations. In a media dominated increasingly by one strident ideological viewpoint, that of neo-liberalism, it’s not just refreshing but vital for the functions of a real democracy that alternative visions of the future are articulated by some of Australia’s keenest minds. Long may P & I continue to add its perceptive voice to our national debate.
David Williamson is Australia’s pre-eminent playwright.
