The City Square – what are they there for?
Many years ago there used to be lots of protest gatherings in Canberra. I am referring to both local and national protests. The local ones used to be regularly held in the place called Civic Square. The national ones were in front of the original Parliament House – now known as the Old Parliament House.

Such protests are now a rare event. Times have changed even though the political situation is much worse now than then.
