Both New South Wales Premier and Prime Minister Scott Morrison have outlined support for Sydney’s Everest Cup advertisements on the sides of the Opera House.
Right-wing commentator Alan Jones, promoter of the event, has been given support by the Premier, following a veto from Opera House Chief Executive Louise Herron after reports of harassment on-air.
In response to the controversial plans, a protest is now planned for Tuesday night where more than 2500 people are expected to go down to the Sydney Opera House in which activists will “create light in order to disrupt the use of the sails for advertising purposes”.
