Construction workers in Victoria, Australia staged massive demonstrations against the state's vaccine mandates on Tuesday, with what appeared to be thousands of workers taking to the streets and highways of Melbourne in aggressive defiance of the government's orders.
Footage from the demonstrations showed workers marching, chanting, ensnaring traffic and in some cases grappling with police.
Some demonstrations turned openly violent against local police (language warning):
Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews recently ordered a two-week halt to construction projects in the state, citing concerns over rising case numbers there.
Things are certainly getting crazy Down Under!
