    Chants of 'we will win'

    Our correspondent Phil Mercer is among thousands of people at The Domain in Sydney.

    He tells us that their overriding message is being "angry and scared with the world on the edge of catastrophe", adding: "There is an unmistakable air of defiance here."

    The protesters are chanting "we will win" and "we are only just getting started".

I guess, this will be some sort of global protest and it's starting out early in the Pacific.

It also kicked off on the Solomon Islands and Vanuatu, South Pacific per the article.

So, I guess the question is how many people flew there to be at the protests?

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

The protesting part will be easy. When any proposals they want start affecting their standard of living they’ll be protesting that
