Two men involved in the ongoing protests in Canberra's parliamentary area were granted bail in the ACT Magistrates Court today.Police allege Bruce Shillingsworth Jnr helped Nicholas Reed carry burning coals to entrance of Old Parliament House
Bruce Shillingsworth Jnr, 30, and Dylan Wilson, 38, appeared in court over charges relating to a fire at Old Parliament House on December 30, and other related charges. In court today, Magistrate Beth Campbell noted that Mr Shillingsworth Jnr appeared to be "one of the ringleaders" of the protests based outside at Old Parliament House, but that he lacked any relevant criminal history.
A number of protesters were in the court today, including Mr Shillingsworth Jnr's father – an Indigenous climate activist also named Bruce Shillingsworth."You are not appearing in my court at the moment, would you please be quiet," Magistrate Campbell told the protesters.
'It's not like on television where someone can just jump up and say 'objection', so would you be quiet, please.' 🤣🤣🤣 While I commend climate change sentiment, these sovereign citizen types crack me up 😆 😆😆
Suddenly no one is aboriginal anymore.
Should be worth a least 20 years.

Get a job! That's my two-bobs-worth junior.
Picture tells a thousand words!
