David Shoebridge marched in Sydney's Black Lives Matter rally on June 6, when protesters ignored health advice to stage a march. Just two days later, Mr Shoebridge took part in an anti-logging rally with the Gumbaynggirr community in the Nambucca State Forest - almost 500km away. Indigenous leader Warren Mundine slammed Mr Shoebridge, and said a virus outbreak in their vulnerable community would 'make the Ruby Princess look like a Sunday afternoon picnic'. Mr Mundine said Mr Shoebridge has shown 'contempt'. Scott Morrison warned activists against attending the June 6 protest, saying it would put community health and safety at risk.
