Afterwards, the construction industry in the big city has been shut down for two weeks. This means that 300,000 people will be out of work.
The head of the trade union for the construction industry, John Setka, has News.com claimed that the demonstration was couped by extreme organizations.
– The drunk, fascist idiots are the reason why the construction workers have to sit at home without being paid for the next two weeks, Setka said.

New demonstrations
On Tuesday, new demonstrations are expected in the center of Australia’s second most populous city, with over 5 million inhabitants.

Rebellion: Full party in “lockdown”
Stands on its own
Authorities chose to introduce the requirement for at least one vaccine dose after several outbreaks in the state of Victoria.
– We have had several outbreaks related to construction sites. They are a mobile workforce that likes to work in different places, and travel longer than other jobs. There have also been concerns about the industry’s ability to follow infection control rules and guidelines, Industry Minister Tim Pallas explained, according to News.com.
The decision to shut down the industry for weeks came after the demonstration went out of control. Pallas insists that workers are only allowed to return when they meet the requirement to have taken at least one vaccine dose.
