With police erecting a Ring of Steel around Melbourne’s CBD, the city is eerily quiet.
No trams, no trains in the Melbourne CBD this morning. Very few locals about too. @australian pic.twitter.com/XvpDnRPMzA

Police are out in force.
It appears they are trying to kettle the protesters, but as more people arrive they may in turn kettle the police. Repeated chants of “You serve us” are breaking out.
You can watch another livestreams of the Melbourne protest here. Philfy is covering the Brisbane rally here. A livestream of the Sydney protest can be viewed here. Early information indicates the police are ready and waiting at Sydney Park for protestors, and organisers are trying to get people to go to a location in Sydney’s West.
It’s going to be big.
