Thank God for Pauline Hanson’s Sarah Game and her crusade against crude sculptures | Peter Goers
Art should be nice - kittens, roses, gum trees, lovely portraits of the late Queen and pictures of Jesus dying in great agony, writes Peter Goers.

A handwritten letter was sent to me last week regarding the controversy at the Art Gallery of SA so here ’tis.*
Dear Mr Goers,
You were much nicer on the shockingly left-wing ABC Radio even though you talked a lot of nonsense. I never read your column but sometimes I agree with you.
That nice Andrew Bolt and David Pendertonthy are much more sensible.
My name is Myrtle McTwertle, I’m 88 and the Media Spokeswoman for the Australian Family Purity League, the President and Life Member of St Agatha Of The Holy Sorrows Women’s Auxiliary (you visited our op shop once but didn’t buy anything) and a member of the Clean Up Television Coalition.
The excellent Pauline Hanson’s One Nation (wouldn’t that be nice) SA parliamentarian Sarah Game MLC alerted us to the disgusting displays at the Art Gallery of SA which is a publicly funded institution on North Terrace, Have you been there? Don’t go.
You will just see a lot of left-wing, elitist, Marxist so-called art.
To think our taxes are paying for this garbage! What is the world coming to?
I like art as much as the next person.
Art should be nice - kittens, roses, gum trees, lovely portraits of the late Queen and pictures of Jesus dying in great agony on the cross.
I haven’t been to the Art Gallery of SA for 65 years when I saw a nice display of the artist Sir Hans Heysen although he let himself down by painting the backs of cows and sheep. That’s unnecessary.
There are only seven parishioners at our church and two are gaga (and we won’t accept a woman priest or homosexuals) but they all warned me about going to the Art Gallery but I had to see for myself.
The first thing I saw was a dead horse hanging from the ceiling. I’m not making this up. A dead horse belongs in the knackery or on a pie.
See, I do have a sense of humour!
Then I saw the two offending “sculptures”. I don’t know about you but I do not want breasts and genitalia thrust in my face. They are disgusting.
I took one look and felt sick to my stomach and went outside and vomited (discreetly) on an agapanthus.
How revolting!
I went home, prayed and immediately wrote to the council to get the Art Gallery of SA shut down.
Thank God for Pauline Hanson’s Sarah Game but that politician Frank Pangallo is supporting this so-called art.
He should go back to running after crooks on the TV. Clearly he knows nothing about art.
It’s criminal that young people see this dangerous rubbish.
No wonder we live in a moral swamp where there are so many broken homes, so many drugs, homosexuality, and so many people who are sex-mad. I blame vaccination. Sex belongs only in marriage and, even then, as little as possible.
In 1947, one woman in Tasmania had a book banned throughout Australia and she is my role model.
We need to return to banning books, swearing, blasphemy and censor everything. SBS is just Sex Before Soccer.
The Americans led by that fine Christian man Donald Trump have the right idea.
Last year a teacher in Florida had to resign because she brazenly showed her class a picture of the naked David by the over-rated Michelangelo.
The entire American nation was horrified when that handmaiden of Satan, Janet Jackson, flashed her nipple. Disgusting.
Sexual permissiveness is the biggest problem facing America not guns because guns don’t kill people - people kill people.
Get rid of this vile, horrible so-called art. Follow the Bible and let’s preach tolerance.
Yours faithfully, Myrtle McTwertle (Miss)
P. S. You spoke at our service club once but most of the ladies couldn’t stand you.
