Important safety alert

This email was sent only to EA Contacts at English Australia member colleges in NSW and Queensland. Please forward this information as appropriate.

 English Australia has been informed by Queensland and NSW Police that they are aware that anti-Islamic rallies are being planned in Brisbane (Parliament House, George St) and Sydney (Martin Place) at 4 pm today, Friday 24 May, in response to the attack that took place in London yesterday.

 Police believe the rallies are being planned to express anti-Islamic sentiments and that the protest organisers may carry out actions to insult Muslims and provoke a response from the Islamic Community. This anti-Islamic sentiment may continue for the next few days.

 English Australia deeply regrets these actions and wants colleges to be aware of what is happening so that they can determine appropriate strategies in relation to their staff and students.
