The counter-protest was led by a procession of First Nations people who marched from Camp Sovereignty on Sunday morning.

Hundreds of people chanted, “No hate, no fear, refugees are welcome here” and “Nazi scum off our streets” as they walked along Swanston Street.

Police spoke to people wearing masks about the designated area rules and used metal detectors to check bags as people headed towards the steps of the State Library.
