30 people today joined outside the New Zealand Consulate General in Melbourne to demonstrate their love and solidarity to all arrested and affected by yesterdays raids.
There was police and media (both NZ and Australian) presence as demonstrators spoke and performed street theatre in support of all those affected by yesterdays events.
"We are here today to demonstrate our support and solidarity of our brother and sister activists in Aotearoa and to show our disgust in the New Zealand Government and its police force repression of activists in Aotearoa."
"This is a full on criminalisation of dissent, it is deplorable and a disgusting attack on Tino Rangatiratanga, Environmental & Peace activists, This is a very convenient way for the police to arrest every activist in the country, and smear them with terrorism, in the style of a cointelpro programme."
Demonstrators today especially expressed love and support to all the people of Tuhoe, especially the children, who have been affected by the invasion of their community yesterday.
Ka Whawhai Tonu Matou Ake Ake Ake!!

Re: New Zealand activists protest arrests
Political activists opposed to this week's police operation in New Zealand against alleged guerilla-style training camps in the eastern Bay of Plenty have staged a demonstration in the Australian city of Melbourne. Around 25 people gathered outside the New Zealand Consulate in Collins Street, Melbourne, earlier today, watched by eight Australian Federal Police officers. Speaker - Sina Brown-Davis, Polynesian anti-globalisation activist

Re: Melbourne Solidarity Demo in Support of Oct15 Arrestees
The timing of the raids at the same time as the annual Arms Dealers meeting which was shut down last year and forced to move from Te Papa this year makes the raids look like an attack on political dissent rather than a response to a real terror threat.
