About 100 or so at the Colac FMD protest. Farmers from across the region and all different sectors. @Warwick_Long @AlexSinnott1
Organiser Peter Delahunty says itās not a political rally, rather itās a farmer rally. Calling for temporary border closure for non essential travel with Indonesia and assistance provided to Indonesians.
Few gathering for the FMD protest in Colac. ā¦@theweeklytimesā© ā¦@KathSullyā©
