A former Greens candidate who required surgery after allegedly being struck by police at a pro-Palestine protest says she was “sickened” by the force’s authorisation of a neo-Nazi rally outside state parliament, alleging it showed “a clear double standard”.
New South Wales police authorised Saturday’s neo-Nazi rally at which about 60 men clad in black called for the abolition of the Jewish lobby, with speakers repeating antisemitic tropes. The decision by NSW police was condemned as “unfathomable” on Sunday by one Jewish group.
