March in March

Who is marching in March? I will be.

"March in March Australia 2014 will be three days of peaceful assemblies, non-partisan citizens' marches and rallies at Federal Parliament and around Australia to protest against government decisions that are against the common good of our nation"

There's just so much to protest about, but I think the thing that riles me the most is our governments dehumanising cruelty to refugees.

Or maybe the 800 million payment to Murdoch

Or the nepotism.

Or plain incompetency.

Anyway, I need ideas for my placard. Can anyone help?

I'll have to travel hundreds of kilometres to get to my nearest march, so I want to make it worthwhile.

I think this kind of protest is good for those who are so passionate about it and I hope it ends as peacefully as it begins 🙂

My days of protesting are well and truly over, I don't think my nerves would allow me to do it and I am not passionate about it.

I protested about Vietnam, apartheid, tent embassy and Gough Whitlam's dismissal. I was very passionate about those!

There is an article in Independent Australia about March in March - maybe someone could add the link.
