The march actually carried on beyond the street theatre in the Mall and ended up with an impromptu party in the street outside Trades Hall - here are some more pics from the rally and march, followed by one from Casselden Place

Mothers and Children Refugee Action Group held a protest rally at Casselden Place at lunchtime. Speakers from the Greens (Alex Bhathal, the founder of the group and candidate for Batman), Socialist Alliance (David Glanz, candidate for Wills) were joined by representatives of disability and feminist groups making common cause with the victims of abuse, children and adults, within the detention camps.
Awesome Vibe

What an awesome vibe we got going! It really was an inspiring, optimistic party atmosphere by the end of it. Many people on the sides of the streets who did not participate in the rally were very supportive, clapping, cheering - it was wonderful sight to see. The drums, loud voices, solidarity from all sides of politics created a trully amazing feeling on the street that will not be forgotten. Well done to all that organised and participated in such a fantastic event!
thanks
