"Creatives" - West End luvvies,Guardian supporting scribblers,opinionated Poetry Society hacks,Radio 3 musicians are all for waving placards & shouting vacuous slogans when it came to protesting Apartheid in South Africa or egregious human rights violations in Myanmar.
But for most of them,this corrupt tyrannical govt.and its Culture Recovery Fund has bought their collective silence.And what few voices there are merely underscores the morally repugnant hypocrisy of those who have chosen to say nothing about the ongoing massive violation of our human & democratic rights under the guise of Covid-19.
Herewith my most recent tweet.
Eric Clapton , Van Morrison , Lionel Shriver & maybe some others less well publicised apart ,where are the rest of the creatives?authors,poets,musicians,actors etc who defend our inalienable human & democratic rights? Nowhere of course- spineless cowardly bastards. https://t.co/7CFgM5bIqx
