Three people have been arrested after a crowd of up to 10,000 anti-vaccine
protesters gathered outside Parliament House in Canberra today.
One man has been charged with multiple offences after driving his truck through
a roadblock. Two other men were taken into custody for breaching the peace.
The protesters, who are largely marching against vaccine mandates but also
include members of a wide range of different protest groups, had earlier forced
the cancellation of a popular book fair in Canberra raising money for mental
health.

Thousands of demonstrators have been camping at the Exhibition Park in Canberra
(EPIC) without authorisation.
Last night, protesters tore down fences being used to set aside parking for the
event.
"Overnight, a significant influx of people to EPIC saw fences moved and campers
established in non-camping areas," an ACT Police spokesperson told 9News.com.au.

"This unauthorised camping has taken up all service and parking areas allocated
to the Lifeline Book Fair."
Today Lifeline Canberra announced their fundraising event would be cancelled.
"Lifeline Canberra has made the tough decision to close the doors to the
bookfair today," the group said in a statement.
"The situation at EPIC has deteriorated overnight and safety is our number one
priority."

The campers have been ordered to move on from Exhibition Park on Sunday to
prepare the venue for the Royal Canberra Show.
"People who remain in EPIC after this time may be considered trespassing," ACT
Police said in a statement yesterday.
"ACT Policing urges those staying at EPIC to respect the management of the venue
and arrange to leave the facility peacefully by Sunday."

Police warned locals to avoid roads near EPIC as well as Northbourne Avenue and
Commonwealth Avenue because of traffic caused by protesters.  
Lifeline is a non-profit organisation providing telephone crisis support for
people with mental health issues.
The book fair is one of the biggest fundraising events for the Canberra branch
of the national organisation.

The vast majority of protesters are not actually from Canberra — the ACT is the
most vaccinated jurisdiction in Australia, with more than 99 per cent of the
population aged over 16 having had a second dose.
