Australia: LGBTIQ+ group calls for protest in Adelaide November 3

Civil society group calls for a protest in support of LGBTIQ+ community in Adelaide on November 3; heightened security presence and localized traffic disruptions expected

Warning

Event

A civil society group is calling for supporters of the LGBTIQ+ community to rally outside of the Parliament House in Adelaide on Sunday, November 3. The protest is scheduled from 13:00 until 16:00 (local time). Organizers of the event are gathering in opposition to the proposed ‘Religious Discrimination’ Bill, which they argue will allow employers to discriminate against LGBTIQ+ workers and anyone who speaks out against discrimination.

A heightened security presence and localized traffic disruptions are anticipated around the protest site.

Advice

Individuals in Adelaide are advised to monitor developments to the situation, avoid all protests and demonstrations as a precaution, and obey all instructions issued by the local authorities.
