Every one of those coppers that endangered horses need charging with cruelty and endangering animals lives. NO horses should EVER be taken into a situation like that.

Welcome back to the COVID future Victoria, feel so sorry for you, down, up, down again......the state's need co-operate and forget the politics as we are all losing to delta ?

Nobody likes lockdowns, but a protest during a pandemic does nothing but potentially increase the length and frequency of lockdowns. It’s just plain dumb. How would they feel if they infect one of their love ones and they end up in ICU?

Why do we even come out of lockdown? Just political point against NSW. We had to come out to prove a point to go back in? The quicker we get rid of Dan the better.

These are the type of people that would be the first to complain if the government just let the virus rip.

As an essential worker who's had 2 days off in 18 months, I'm sick and tired of fighting to keep these idiots safe. No one likes lockdowns, the alternative is a lot of dead people.

What do they suggest? It is understandable to not like lockdown. However, protesting when there is no practical alternative is a bit thick.

I'm not a supporter of these protestors and I am locked away nicely despite being vaccinated. It's been lockdown after lockdown. How can anyone start a business / family / studies with this scenario. Where is the accountability?

Who would have thought just 2 years ago that Australia can be described as a country where civil liberties are being abolished and the police is used to threaten and punish people who have a problem with that.

Because a few people get it, LOCKDOWN, LOCKDOWN, LOCKDOWN! How’s that working for us? Captain Obvious says…… It’s not and they don’t work!

Victoria wakes, not Victoria awakes.

Totally fed up with lockdown.

ScottMorrisonMP had a population equivalent of New York city (Australia) to vaccinate and had 18months to do so. So When is EnoughIsEnough COVID19nsw

Hundreds of Q Kumbers who use “sheeple” and “MSM” a lot. Strong Pete Evans vibes.
