BellyBelly Kelly - tweets from someone in Canberrra: A woman has gone into labour at the protest. . . Amber is now performing song for nicola Roxon. . . Apparently a police blockade is keeping more people from joining the thousands here. . . I saw a dad wearing a shi...rt saying my vagina my choice. Awesome. . . At parliament house it is packed! Can't hear much but banners

a woman in labour - thats gotta show the pollys birth is possable about side of a hospital (plus all the midwife support she'd be getting!!)

Thank you for what you are doing ladies and gents... we support you 100%

i caught a little bit of something on it on the ch 7 sunrise programme this morning. i missed who it was that they had on & alot of what they said :redface:, but it was great to see some coverage before the rally even started!

Hope it went well and the weather was not too unpleasant!

I'm in Canberra, but had to work :wall:
The news footage looked great on Sunrise this morning, but I missed the news tonight.
Hope the Politicians will see reason!

There was nada on national news from what we saw. Local canberra news had some brief footage about which senators spoke etc but that was about it.

Yeah nothing on the news up here that I saw! Which really ticked me off! Its a massive thing..but like my DH sadi the news exectutives dont have vaginas so why do they care! lol! Grrrr!

I didn't see anything on the news here :( I would have thought a massive protest at parliament house would at least rate a mention...

boomba - you made me smile when i read what you said about the news exec' - o so true!!!! I've also heard very little.

Hope everyone had a great time sticking it to em, sad we couldn't be there but DD2 is on the mend now so things are looking up again!

I got a call from my MP this morning telling me that while we were outside, many questions were happening inside so our presence was felt!
