"A neo-Nazi was among speakers to address the crowd at a tense anti-immigration
protest in Melbourne, as similar demonstrations under the banner March for
Australia took place in state and territory capitals across the country on
Sunday.
While the protests were condemned as hateful by the federal government, some
politicians attended, including the One Nation leader, Pauline Hanson, and
party member Senator Malcolm Roberts in Canberra and the federal MP Bob Katter
in Townsville.
The marches were promoted by neo-Nazis, as well as anti-lockdown figures who
gained prominence during the pandemic, and other fringe groups but no group
publicly claimed responsibility for organising the protests.
In Melbourne protesters gathered outside Flinders Street station with many
carrying Australian flags, along with placards bearing anti-immigration
slogans.
A counter-protest also assembled in front of the State Library of Victoria,
with the weekly pro-Palestine rally merging with an antifascist
counter-demonstration to protest against the March for Australia."
