This vigil is running continuously, 24 hours a day, on the steps of Parliament House in Melbourne (corner Bourke St and Spring St) from midday on the 14th of November until 12am on the 24th of November, the day of the Victorian election. Come by when you can if you’re in Melbourne! More people are required, especially late at night/overnight, but come down whenever you can – whether it is a few minutes, a few hours, or a few days – the more people joining in the stronger the action will be!
