@australia they lied to the press and public by claiming the protests are linked to the Greens, that they're related to Extinction Rebellion, and that they're illegal. None are true. Every protest has gone through the accepted process of declaring intent. Instead, BCC & QPS have wasted their resources fighting the protests in court with multiple expensive Silks, against the self-repped organisers. And they lie, inventing nonsensical security risks, in order to get the court to block the protest.

@australia (the protest pictured here is a different one to the one that BCC and QPS lied to get blocked. A weekend march through the CBD streets that make up the official detour. Instead of the originally-planned peak-hour block of the Story Bridge)
