A Pro-Palestine group that planned a protest outside Myer’s Christmas windows have opted to cancel their demonstration. It comes after Sunday’s public unveiling of the windows was cancelled as a result of the protest.

Myer’s annual Christmas window unveiling event has been scrapped over safety concerns due to a planned pro-Palestine protest, calling for the end of the ongoing war.

Israel activists who shut down the opening of Myer Melbourne Christmas windows in protest over the Gaza war have been condemned by police and the Victorian Premier and prompted a vow to strengthen the state’s anti-vilification laws.

Jacqui Felgate has clashed with President of the Australia Palestine Advocacy Network, Nasser Mashni, over the now cancelled pro-Palestine protest outside of the Myer Christmas windows on the weekend.

Retail giant Myer has confirmed the opening of its beloved Christmas windows will not go ahead on Sunday, despite pro-Palestine activists cancelling their “planned disruptions” following widespread backlash.

In a statement, the North Sydney MP slammed the proposed donation and electoral spending caps as a “cynical attempt at collusion to protect a waning political duopoly.” A reported bid by the major parties to rush donation reforms through Parliament before Christmas should be seen as a cynical attempt at collusion to protect a waning political duopoly.

The organiser behind a pro-Palestine rally has now cancelled the disruptions scheduled in Melbourne CBD on Sunday.

The protest outside Myer’s annual Christmas windows has been cancelled after the retail giant scrapped the launch event and Premier Jacinta Allan accused the protesters of “politicising Christmas”.
