As parts of Victoria and New South Wales grapple with a second outbreak of COVID-19, Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison has described the Black Lives Matter organisers’ decision to proceed with a Sydney demonstration next week as “appalling.”

The rally is set for July 28 in Sydney’s central business district and more than 4,000 are expected to attend.
