The stupid ones didn't take part.

Probably too busy on the net, bagging those who did care enough to take action.

Thousands drawn to Australia-wide protests against government policies (ABC Online)

Thousands of Australians have taken to the streets this weekend to protest against the Federal Government's policies.

The March in March protests are being held in the CBDs of capital cities as well as in smaller regional centres across the states and territories.

Protesters waving placards are voicing their anger on a wide range of policy issues, including climate change, the treatment of asylum seekers, marriage equality, the tax system and media ownership.

The March in March event started on Saturday and will continue until Monday, when protesters deliver a motion of no confidence to Parliament House in Canberra.

Prime Minister Tony Abbott was asked about the protests during a press conference with NSW Premier Barry O'Farrell, in which they announced a green light for Sydney's NorthConnex tunnel.

"My understanding is that the only big rally in Sydney is the St Patrick's Day parade," Mr Abbott said.

"That is the big event in Sydney today. I wish all of them well.

"If their parade is rained on, there is always some Guinness available around the city."

Opposition Leader Bill Shorten distanced himself from the rally, telling reporters the Labor Party is not formally involved.

"But I do get that people want to express their views. It's a free country," he said.

didn't see it, didn't read about it and it is on precisely NO ONEs agenda. it was a pitifully small march with no agenda other than to hat Abbott and it was such an embarrassment even the labor party - which usually joins this type of rubbish - refused to be part.
