scorn for the political class

Writer: Amanda RiddellAmanda Riddell

Well, I was reflecting that it seems like white people are the main haters when it comes to my Shipwrecked on Islands musical. Which got me thinking about politics, and how it's like a career path for people who grew up in the neighbourhoods where I went to high school. - For example, the Greens rely on a fairly similar socioeconomic group for their young voters as the National Party, and polls particularly well in affluent communities. I think there's a risk of groupthink if everyone has political science degrees or public administration or whatever. It's the same in my field: if everyone has the same background, then where's the diversity? 🤔 - Riddell Productions wasn't exactly a bastion of working-class angst, but I think it was a fairly varied group of people who worked for us. I think the Orgies demonstrate that. While it seems like some people are trying to limit my entrepreneurial vision so they can exploit me, I reckon my idea of travelling to the global film hotspots with the Orgies is a moneyspinner. -
