flag New South Wales passes revised anti-protest law targeting religious sites after court voided original, citing free speech concerns.

flag New South Wales is strengthening anti-protest laws targeting religious sites after a court invalidated the original version for being overly broad. flag The revised bill allows police to intervene when protests block access to places of worship, following a neo-Nazi demonstration where 60 people shouted racist slogans and displayed Nazi symbols. flag The government says the changes balance public safety with free expression, addressing constitutional concerns raised by a Supreme Court judge. flag Premier Chris Minns acknowledged the law may face legal challenges and confirmed the visa of South African attendee Matthew Gruter has been canceled, leading to his deportation. flag The protest, known to officials beforehand, prompted calls for broader bans on Nazi chants and symbols.
