#TheReactionaries Welcome to New Zealand, where old men talk down to younger smarter women. Catton criticised New Zealand as a country led by neo-liberal, profit-obsessed, very shallow, very money-hungry politicians who do not care about culture. The Luminaries writer, who won the Man Booker Prize has also taken a swipe at the tall poppy syndrome and Kiwis attitudes towards individual achievement. Her outburst has drawn a response from Prime Minister John Key, who said yesterday he was disappointed at Cattons lack of respect for his Government and claimed the author was aligned with the Green Party. #CreepingAuthoritarianism #Oligarchy #SadHatefulOldWhiteMen
