Hanson protest planned in Adelaide

ADELAIDE — The "secret venue" of Pauline Hanson's next appearance here on October 18 has been leaked to Campaign Against Racism.

The One National fundraising dinner will be held at the Hyatt Regency Hotel, on North Terrace. CAR is planning a protest starting at 6pm.

On October 10, a CAR stall was physically attacked by members of the far-right National Action. NA tipped over the stall, and threatened and photographed of CAR members. A large group of Asian and Aboriginal young people gathered to defend the CAR activists. The crowd chanted "migrants are welcome, racists are not".

When police arrived they informed CAR activists that they had filmed the whole incident, then proceeded to harass the Asian and Aboriginal youths. In recent weeks NA has been forced to leave the mall by mobilisations of Asian and Aboriginal young people.

CAR will be holding another stall and speak-out against racism on October 17 at 4.30pm at the King William Street end of the mall.
