What is clearly evident and comprehensible in Flanagan's work is this ability to capture real larrikin Australian-isms and the overwhelming vernacular. Some of his even recent stunts include publishing an article for the Guardian, where he pledges to ''Go to jail to save my beloved country.'' He was involved in the Stop Adani protests. Don't think Flanagan because of the fact he writes best-selling books that he is sappy and emotive. He taps into the Australian rebellious culture and attributes akin to that of bushrangers like Ned Kelly. The Australian rebel is hugely popular. Some of the other latest stunts in the Flanagan canon is openly criticising Prime Minister Scott Morrison, and casting him aside like a meek child, labelling him famously ''Scotty from Marketing''.
