BREAKING: Worrying video footage is emerging in Sydney of violent scenes erupting between hundreds of anti-lockdown protesters and police.

“It’s not a cause I support but the license that officers were taking here is something that concerns me. I saw several arrests and open threats from officers to ‘get people’.”

A huge police presence can be seen mounted on horseback and on foot as the maskless crowd fights to have their voices heard. Police officers, locals and protestors can be can be seen fighting among each other, with one group throwing punches before falling to the ground in a tangle.Thousands gathered in the CBD. Picture: MatrixNSW Police say the march is unauthorised due to public health orders and many on social media are not happy about the mass gathering.

Thousands of people out of work, struggling to survive. Gladys had plenty of opportunity to stop it before it goes worse. Stop positive tested people from coming from overseas. A quick lockdown when it started in Bondi would have avoided all this... the people have spoken. listen

Peaceful until the gestapo ptched up

Calm down it would be forgotten in a month unless you idiots keep bringing it up

Civil unrest not the way Fed Govt failed 10 months ago not enough purpose built remote quarantine stations & airstrips & not enough vacs. Vote of no confidence by House of Reps. Contact your local Fed Member demand action in the national interest to stop the damage.

I'm guessing the people there were a mix of the far right, anti-vax conspiracy fruit-loops and desperate people with nothing to lose who will latch on to anything that can give them hope. The problem is that as the numbers of desperate people rise, these rallies will get bigger.

Seems to be trouble makers than the usual peaceful crowd

Protesting for the freedom to act like ignorant arseholes, guess this is a clear indication of why the lockdown needs to be more vigorously policed

Natural selection at work….

Yeah ask Steven hamon

Disappointing. Want people to know they don’t speak for me or the majority of Australians who understand why we need to abide by lockdown restrictions. Just do it right people and this will pass.

At a glance the header photo looks like the Sydney streets are on fire. The media have a lot to answer for , no doubt they’ve doctored the photo to make it look worse. Then there’s the question of blowing Melbs protest out of proportion covid What is the motive of the media

Nutters.

Let's not sensationalise. It's a free country, let them protest if they're willing to risk COVID

So, this is freedom of speech, democracy.. this was always going to happen, violence, dangerous behaviors & brawls..to top that, a super spreading event. I would like to thank every one of them contributing to further impacts that affect us all. Selfish people prolonging lockdown

Just why

Let em go. Let the law of LCD do its job.

What is it they are trying to achieve?

IS THIS ANARCHY ? Anarchy is a society being freely constituted without authorities or a governing body. It may also refer to a society or group of people that entirely rejects a set hierarchy. The word Anarchy used in English , means 'an absence of government'.

Outrage at fake supermarket advice in Sydney lockdownThe fake message appears to be a knock-off of a NSW Health media release, wrongly warning residents of a new Covid-19 lockdown restriction. This is not appropriate. Do we expect essential supermarket workers to work during lockdowns? They CANNOT get COVID vaccines unless they’re under some other priority. The government expects them to work but won't protect them! Is this fair to them or their family?MarkMcGowanMP 欢迎您加入GETTR,这里有您需要的真相,有您需要的言论自由!

Map shows major threat for SydneyA large area in Sydney’s southwest has been singled out as “particularly concerning” as NSW health officials scramble to contain the ongoing coronavirus outbreak. Remove the Central Coast from the “Greater Sydney” gulag One of the most infuriating things I have seen are the pictures of Sydney siders congregating in groups and many still not wearing masks. While we in southern NSW suffer restrictions and cannot travel to see our loved ones. The selfishness is beyond belief and is maddening. Lock the whole state down fools, geeees. Otherwise NSW will be chasing this for months. Seriously GladysB your making Dan Andrews look good. GladysB 2GB873 7NewsSydney 9NewsSyd smh NSWHealth ScottMorrisonMP GregHuntMP
