‘Peacefully’: Coalition leader Sussan Ley calls for calm ahead of Sydney rallies

Opposition leader Sussan Ley said that the Australians had the right to protest before the three rallies reserved for Sydney tomorrow, but should be done in a “respectful” way.

“We protect the right to protest in Australia. However, this must be done with peaceful and respect,” he said.

Ms. Ley reminded that there is no room for violence, racism or intimidation in Australia.

“We cannot allow hate and fear to be ruptured in our social harmony, whether it is mixed from afar or here,” he said.

“Respect, tolerance, community. It belongs to all of us, and what unites us will always be stronger than those who want to divide us.”

Tensions are increasing with anti -immigration and pro -immigration opposing marches reserved for the day.

The anti -immigration march for the Australian protest will shoot Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.

Protestors, “The Union of Australia and the common values ​​were worn with policies and movements that divided us” and “Our streets saw the increasing images of anti -Australian hatred, foreign conflicts and fragmented trust”.

The right -wing walk is expected to meet with the vocal left wing opposition struggling with “racism ..

Since Sydneysiders are closed for more than one event, they are asked to avoid non -compulsory travels to the city.

There will also be public councils for the Palestinian Action group and refugee action coalition and a marathon.

Interior Minister Tony Burke criticized the Australian rally march.

“There is no room for people who want to divide and weaken our social harmony in our country,” he said.

The NSW police said they were ready to move quickly to suppress the hints of violence between protesters.

Hundreds of civil servants will be deployed to control the rallies in Sydney.

Deputy Police Commissioner Paul McKenna said the police are ready to go to any unexpected situation on Sunday.

McKenna said, “We have worked very closely with the organizers of these public councils, and they guarantee that they want to do something right and they do not come to the city to cause problems or other anti-social behaviors,” he said.
