Invasion Day protests in Sydney.(9News) "We were happy, when you consider in previous years we've had up to 15,000 people turn up to these rallies in Sydney alone," Mr Elliott told Today. "The 3000 crowd dispersed into groups of 500 by negotiation with the police. In return, they didn't march, which was a great outcome. They complied with the request from police in that regard." Thousands gathered in the Domain to listen to speeches from First Nations people, with people seated socially distanced.
