Today is Palm Sunday. Thousands of people will take to the streets to protest Australia’s mistreatment of asylum seekers and refugees. Anyone want to bet that Morrison will announce the election today, and that that’s all any of the media will cover?

Perfect start to the school holidays:
Listening to @AFlohm at the Palm Sunday Rally today invoking the tenet buried deep in the soul of us teachers.
"All wars are fought against children"
Let me tell ya, people aren't too pleased with this Morrison government! https://t.co/hZ1ED9rG2u
Proud to stand with so many Canberrans and the ACT Labor contingent at today’s Palm Sunday Rally calling for humane treatment of refugees and asylum seekers. Australia must do better.

🌴Palm Sunday 🌴
Today we celebrate #PalmSunday which is the final Sunday of Lent, the beginning of Holy Week, and commemorates the arrival of Jesus Christ in Jerusalem. Have a blessed day with your family and friends. https://t.co/eDQDYn3FCC
Hope to see you at the Palm Sunday Walk for Justice for Refugees at the state library today - 2pm (Melb). Let’s show in this election year we are not buying in to the idea that it is ok to inflict suffering on people seeking protection in the name of deterrence. Time for change!

Palm Sunday in 2022
Palm Sunday commemorates Jesus Christ's last arrival into Jerusalem before his crucifixion. According to the Gospels, as Jesus entered Jerusalem on a donkey, the crowds greeted him by waving and laying palm branches in his path.
