We have the power to unite and express our concerns and we have the right to Freedom Of Asesembly And Association Tomorrow on the 10th of January 2020, we will stand with the people to send a clear message to that Fossil Fool, Ass Clown of a prime minister.

Signs will be made of recycled material from our friends at Reverse Garbage. The Sydney Work-Shop Crew, street artist Phibs, Indigenous Artist Nadeena Dixon, Tattoo Artist Sprinkles amongst other creative rebels will be on deck to help you with your masterpiece. Everyone welcome so please help us spread the word! Over and Out, Chet […]
