   ABC News, 21 Sep 2021 23:40Z

   Reports of damaged buildings are emerging in Victoria after a magnitude-6   
   earthquake centred on the north-eastern Victorian town of Mansfield was felt   
   across Australia's south-east.   
      
   BREAKING (22 Sept); A big earth tremor has been registered in outer   
   Melbourne. The ground wobbled for a good few seconds where I am, 60 km   
   N of the city. Apparently it was kinda localized because live TV news   
   from Melbourne seems to be going ahead with nothing going on.  [Later   
   reports say it was felt across Vic and ACT and even in Tasmania and   
   was a mag 6 centered in NE Vic at 10 km down -- rel shallow and big   
   for Australia].   
      
   BREAKING (22 Sept): Prem Andrews is giving a press conf addressing the   
   2000-strong anti-shutdown protest yesterday.  He said it was an insult   
   to tradies and the construction industry and did not represent   
   building workers or unions.  Mr Andrews said the 320k-strong industry   
   had been working up to this point in the pandemic where retail and   
   pubs were shut or restricted to collect-only.  Mr Andrews said there   
   had been no choice but to close construction down for 2 weeks after   
   350 building workers came down with Delta and the sector could not be   
   re-opened until workers were vaccinated and took the pandemic   
   seriously.  He foreshadowed other sectors would also be subject to a   
   vaccine mandate and more announcements will come.  Police said they   
   made 60 arrests yesterday and people would be charged with a variety   
   of violence and health offences. They are preparing for a 3rd day of   
   protests today.  Reporters say the protests have been organised via   
   social media by a "number of groups". Some of the protesters yesterday   
   were building workers but other anti-vaxx or anti-lockdown groups were   
   involved.  Unions say the protest had been used by far-right groups to   
   cause trouble and had told their members to "dress like tradies" for   
   the protests.  On morning TV CFMEU boss John Setka who had been   
   attacked in yesterday's protest said if any real building workers had   
   been involved in the fracas they were no longer welcome in the industry.   
      
   CFMEU says members taking part in protests 'not welcome in our industry'   
   ABC News, 21 Sep 2021 22:23Z   
   More than 500 police will remain in Melbourne's CBD on high alert   
   today after thousands of protesters, many voicing anti-vaccination   
   views, stopped traffic on the West Gate Bridge, as well as injuring   
   three police officers and a journalist.   
   [The mob wandered around the city for at least 6 hrs yesterday.  Some   
   carried Trump posters. Almost exclusively young men.  Reporters said   
   the group didnt seem to know what their message was or where they were   
   going. They moved from place to place in the CBD then headed out to   
   the Westgate Bridge to block traffic for an hr, then headed back into   
   the city again. One reporter says he was doused with urine from a   
   bottle as part of the protest].
