Victoria Police has given the green light to a planned protest in Melbourne to stand in solidarity with Black Lives Matter protests in the United States, insisting it would cause greater upset to prohibit the event.

Police will be in attendance to ensure social distancing regulations are adhered to as the state ban on public gatherings remains at a maximum of 20 people and 15,000 people have indicated interest in the event.

Premier Daniel Andrews said he would not attend the protest and suggested other people do the same to prevent a spike in the number of coronavirus infections. Prime Minister Scott Morrison said on Thursday that he was confident people would protest in a safe manner. “Everyone should be seeking to follow the health advice at all times but we’re a free country and there is a right to peacefully protest,” he said.

Greater upset to prohibit the event? Pfffft. That won't be known until we have sight of covid case volumes next month and the consequences arising from the impossibility of contact tracing. Not that the organisers of these visual treats concern themselves over it.

A protest that uses social separation and is very spread out would have more impact. Follow the law and set an example so police can also follow the law and not use excess.

Gutless wonders .

Well we can’t upset the Chairman’s base now, can we..!? AfDanistan

Compare this to ANZAC Day where intelligent decent people with common sense safely and within the health orders paid their respects for the many brave souls that died to protect our right to protest. DanielAndrewsMP DebFrecklington AnnastaciaMP

Asking for Police permission to protest is not a protest. They should be protesting to free Julian Assange from the same 5EYES cocksucking currupt Australian Government but the ehem 'media' here in Australia don't mention Assange.

Lets swing the pub doors wide open, byo placards. We aren’t breaking any laws, we are holding a protest!!

Reinforces the fact that wokeness trumps science

ALL LIVES MATTER. The Coronavirus does not discriminate.

BlackSabbathLive matters

Open restaurants, pubs, cafes. Let's all get to the footy. Play 18 holes then a beer.

So refunding all the fines then, all 6000.

Looks like the lockdown is over. Everyone back to normal.

Corona virus is still around and mass gatherings are now allowed then.the inconsistency of this govt is incredible.

VIC gov declares C19 cured & over! Physical restriction abandoned in support of a international polical rally around black lives . Hmm

typical. all over the West the left gets free reign because violence.

Victoria has a police force?

If in two weeks our cases are skyrocketing we know why. However on the flip side if in two weeks our cases are similar to today then there is zero reason to no lift every restriction and let life go back to normal.

Naturally Vic police have given the green light. Comrade Dan has told Vic Police to stand down.!! Comrade Dan doesn’t instruct the Vic Police... opps.. yes he does!!

Protesting Africans ok, cafes not ok. Victoria the hard left State.

There is something really not right about this defacto gov

Ppl were not allowed to go to funerals of loved ones because that wouldn't get votes.

Using the protest in America for their own purpose. Don’t worry killing our own citizens with covid that is still at a level where there must be social distancing, closed borders and where you can’t go to work if you wanted to.

The fact is Most homicides in the United States are intraracial!! There is no racial war going on but it’s in the interest of the media to make you believe there is!!

The Chinese must be laughing their boxes off right now!

Let's hope there's plenty of virus spreading around causing deaths and despair then the elderly, whom have been singing the praises of Daniel Andrews, will now realize his government is only concerned with race politics and not in fact people's lives.

What complete & utter hypocrisy.

So social distancing doesn't matter now, nor how many people that can gather. Can't have it both ways Vic Govt. Hopefully everyone starts to ignore these ridiculous restrictions, clearly the govt doesn't even believe in them otherwise this 'protest' wouldn't be allowed!

corona4george

Ohhh!! So if I was stopped from opening my retail outlet it will cause great upset!! Ok got it.

Victoria’s right wing fascists are in full tweet protesting against the protest. Priceless.

This is better than the HomeBuilder scheme, we have been given the green light to loot! 👏🤦‍♂️

Because, since what's his name was killed by that racist white cop, we are so devastated we're never going to forget ol' what's his name... 🙄

No crowds at footy but large gatherings to protest a cause that hasnt changed here since pre covid and could easily wait. Makes sense...

VictoriaPolice are DanAndrewsEunuchs

Sickening hypocrisy and double standards of the left...nothing new...I hope they all get sick!

Chairman Dan, the leader of the Socialist State of Victoria doesn't want to alienate his support base by issuing fines. But if you've just lost someone you can't go to a funeral, you can't go to gym, you can't go to the pub, double standards DanielAndrewsMP

Hopefully there will be no violence....not holding my breath!

.DanielAndrewsMP draconian lock-down measures prevented people from saying goodbye to dying loved ones but now allows a mass gathering to protest an incident in America?

Open up the businesses and church this virus is a hoax and is now over.

No further fines can now be issued by VictoriaPolice for social distancing breaches given they admit that applying a fine for breaching the rule of social distancing antagonizes people. Equality in Victoria. There goes your revenue. AllLivesMatter DanielAndrewsMP

Blacks killed by police in America 0.7%.. Blacks killed by blacks in America 53% Can someone please put that on a placard while walking the streets.

VictoriaPolice DanielAndrewsMP LisaNeville how pathetic to allow this protest to go ahead with the full potential for another outbreak, have a beer at a pub and $1600 fine, this Govt is a jole

Scamdemic proven. How dumb are people who believed the politicians?

usual Victoria rubbish

Fuken.. WOW!!.. is all that can be said about that. All you normal hardworking business owners don't bend your knee is solidarity.. Just bend over.

What a piss weak reason. It was ok for DanielAndrews to ban Mother's Day visits and threaten us with police fines. This is a very clever virus. It will attack you if you visit your mother on Mothers day but it will not if you protest. And hey....you won't get a $1600 fine.

Dans police force “no balls at all”

I thought all Australian were concerned to keep this out of remote communities? Is there a risk of protesters coming or going intrastate afterward DanielAndrewsMP? You don't want to be the one to spread it to vulnerable remote communities, do you? Another NYGovCuomo moment?

The virus is a scam by environmental socialist.. Every day we see clear evidence of this. Our governments are not controlling us. our governments are being controlled. We are being controlled by forces outside our governments. Those who don't see this are simply gullible.

So people get fined for taking a learner for a drive, paddle boarding, golf, seeing your mum. Destroy economy and businesses/jobs. But thousands protesting will be ok The world hypocrisy is overwhelming! 🤔🤔🤔🤔

Fuckem! We all stand in solidarity with the black community and the Floyd family - these protests create strain and achieve nothing - pray from home and everyone is safe!

It also gave Qanon nutters the right to protest a couple of weeks back, so fair is as fair does.

Vote them out at the next election. It’s that simple

Ashton is a political puppet

So social distancing is no longer necessary

Well, we don’t want to upset these people! Hell no, what would we do if they got upset?

Of course they have... they're under orders

FFS the usual wokeness cometh

I pray with all my heart this costs DanielAndrewsMP the next election, I pray business owners give him a massive boot out of office

Victoriastan- the socialist state of stupidity.

LOL.

Completely unacceptable. The state was brought to a standstill under DictatorDan - the COVID lockdown crippled small biz & hospitality. Allowing a mass gathering to go ahead is a kick in the teeth to those who abided by the rules & suffered emotionally and financially.

Apparently, all of a sudden: CovidRiskDoesntMatter

Oooooh no don’t upset them ! We won’t sleep at night !

Can’t march on ANZAC Day, Mother’s Day cancelled, cant visit elderly relatives, economy trashed, futures ruined .... but violent protest about something that happened in another country is OK?

HOLD ON TIGHT PEOPLE HERE WE GO....FOR The Cabal's Next distraction they will roll out another FF 'second wave of virus' after this manufactured 'race war' event...

Are we allowed to go to the Footy next weekend?

And so it goes on with DanielAndrewsMP and his Socialist left party.

Now, apparently... covidlivesdon’tmatter

Australia, .. watch/listen to this man who was a victim of child sex trafficking. Listen to what he says about PM Morrison at the 2:45 mark. Video is 20 min long. That should cause him some uncomfortable times.

Been saying for weeks that victoriapolice is a weak, political organisation. Can't wait to see you all down on one knee. Where were the protests when you shot and killed an older caucasian man on the Monash last week? White lives don't matter?

WTAF! You'r kidding me!?

Rip vic pol another victim to leftist ideology :(

Who rescinded the social distancing rule that businesses must abide by or be fined obscene amounts of money?

The mind boggles 😱🤬

The same police force that tells there are no sudanese crime gangs and have comrade dan as their leader Yep that works

Wish we could get permission to stand in solidarity next Thursday night at the mcg!

Was there ever any doubt ffs! Classic 2 sets of rules

Yet a white woman also protesting during the pandemic is arrested and has her child ripped out of her arms by Police. I don’t get the double standards. Hmm 🤔 Auspol LNP MarkLatham

Victoria is in effect at the mercy of mob rule.

They are such a bunch of losers down there..we don't need to follow what others are doing! No need to protest and i can guarantee you that 90 percent of the population dont give a fck! So all you other 10pct get a fckn job and stop using our tax money!

Of course they would. It's Daniel Andrews thugs in the Commie AntiFa who are organising it.

Where’s the leadership in this government covid 19 only exists if go to sporting events if going to see Mum on Mother’s Day if going to the park ect. But no covid 19 if protesting. Hello

oh fresh off..

This should open the eyes of everyone that thought the virus was a real threat. For marxists the real threat is people united. Andrews needs to be removed, now!

Ok then. I'm going to the footy cause I'll cause greater upset if you don't let me. All clear?

Special pandering

When the Riots and Looting starts what then ?

ALL lives matter. You're all racist if you are just saying black lives.

Download the Chinese app b4 you 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣go

Spark some 'upset', will it Never mind all of those that have had to farewell loved ones at a funeral only allowed 5.

I don’t think anybody has a problem with the principle of the rally itself, I sure dont but Dan Andrews better hope as hell this does not release another COVID wave. Cos if it does he should hand in his resignation

So it’s ok then for everyone to gather at pubs, clubs, sports andshopping centres!!!! Just carry a little placard !!!!

Great. All shutdown is now over. Let’s go back to normal.

Hold my beer..Anzac Day, Mothers Day...anyone?

Except that melbourne isn’t Minnesota

Does that mean we can also ignore the fake lockdown or does that not conform with the leftist agenda?

Please allow hipster Timmy O’Toole to protest. He is standing up for black rights that he listens to on Spotify via his hip hop playlist!

DictatorDan CedarAndrews ChinaLiedPeopleDied FreeHongKong

Well I'm going to the footy the following saturday, don't stop me or it will cause great upset

You seeing this ScottMorrisonMP? Your scare mongering for the fake covid has ruined Australian businesses and lives but this is alright and acceptable. All for a fake cop doing a fake arrest in a staged event. You think we don’t see what’s going? Awake in oz

Shop owners heading to Bunnings now .

They should revoke all the fines given out to anyone who was alone or with one other person, practicing social distancing, when they got fined in the last month/s. Utter bull!!!

What happened to ANZAC Day then!? 😡

What BS from the Victorian government and police. They’re happy to fine the rest of us but not these people.

Really this a insulting to those who have kept social distancing all these weeks as asked for by Dan. Unless we wake-up to the impact social media is having on our ability to govern, we are finished!!

So COVID is done now? I can travel to SA to see my kids for the first tome in months What a joke

I will leave this here.

So Andrews supports this. He is insane...

Are VictoriaPolice going to withdraw the earlier fines issued for half a dozen people playing backyard cricket under the watch of DanielAndrewsMP

Victoria. Enough said.

ScottAdamsSays Episode 1016 just did a brilliant segment on the failure of the Black Lives ‘movement’ to persuade others to improve their opinion on the issues. Their actions do nothing but cause further division.

Just think It's the Aboriginal people that are marching ....So they Wil infected their people possibly?

More nonsense. Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof. 📖🙏

Hypocrites during an epidemic today eight more infection yesterday ten ...your a joke Andrews

So much for social distancing, we might as well declare the pandemic to be over.

Unbelievable.

And that’s fine, so now the virus doesn’t seem to be such a risk anymore how about ending the restrictions. COVID19au

Not safe to go to work but this is ok? WTF is going on, people need to take to the streets to protest against the bullshit from dictator Dan policestate

Where's Dictator Dan's hard line now pathetic one eyed leader, this needs to be addressed for the people's justice /he seems to be using some eachway Albo tactics, Not bloody good enough 😠👎

So COVID is over

ALL Lives Matter

This will be a good opportunity for African gangs to voice their grievances.

Because lefties don’t have to social distance in Dans communist state

How about we organise a protest march against labour. Would be banned in minutes.

The question is will the Victoria Police be allowed to do their job or have they been ordered by the Government to stand back and let the looting happen?

So police will be replacing pistols with tape measures in their holsters 🤔🤔

and news media will have them at suitable fever pitch by the weekend. Board up your shops people.

All you need is a mob. I’ll remember this.

Look how well that’s turned out in the UK🙄

This is a joke. All the businesses have to have social distancing rules and the protestors are allowed to do what ever they want. The whole country is ruined because of nothing burger

But I want to save lives and this will kill people, much like playing golf would kill lives under Covid. How reckless of Andrews and the Vic Pol. Shameful. Don't show up and please save the lives of my elderly parents

Right, so the real headline should be- “Police allow protest against police to go ahead”. So what if they HADN’T given the green light? Would the protestors have just sighed and stayed at home? Even protests apparently have red tape attached in Australia.......

More communist garbage. WHAT ABOUT COVID you lying tools

So COVID19 is cancelled?

4 days ago they announced they were extending the 'State of Emergency'.. now they are prepared to have 30,000 protesters stand side by side and chant.

It would cause greater upset not to placate the criminal mobs? 🤔

Well we wouldn’t want to upset anyone now, would we?

Those people who couldn't attend their loved ones funeral must be seething.

But we still can’t go to church. Vote out Labor

covid? no? a hoax... like everything else.

That is pathetic
