Last weekend, Nick Folkes and his anti-halal brigade were at it again. (from New Matilda, April 15, 2016.)
After setting up a protest outside a Melbourne halal expo the week earlier, Folkes and his crew moved on to once more hassle expo-goers at the Sydney leg, waving placards, flags, and banners, as police kept them separate from an anti-fascist counter-protest.
Those involved in the anti-halal movement are fond of framing their objections to the process in pragmatic terms. Rather than saying they simply feel uncomfortable with Muslims, they try for broader arguments.
