The center-left government condemned the marches, saying they sought to spread hate and were linked to neo-Nazis.
March for Australia rallies against immigration were held in Sydney and other state capitals and regional centers, according to the group’s website.
“Mass migration has torn at the bonds that held our communities together,” the website says. The group also says it is concerned about other issues, including culture, wages, housing, water supply, environmental destruction and crime.
Many counter-protests were also held across the country, coinciding with the weekly pro-Palestinian protests that have occurred every Sunday since October 2023. In Sydney, the Refugee Action Coalition said in a statement, the counter-rally it held “shows the depth of disgust and anger about the far-right agenda of March for Australia”.
