None of this does.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kerry was simply out for a walk, all by herself.<\/strong>&nbsp;But\n because she was carrying this sign, police swarmed her and gave her a \nmassive ticket. What&#8217;s that got to do with public health?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily, forward-thinking Kerry caught her whole interaction on \ncamera, proving police are now fining people in Melbourne for \ncriticizing Premier Daniel Andrews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kerry&#8217;s sign read&nbsp;\u201ctoot to boot\u201d&nbsp;with a picture of Daniel Andrews below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kerry was cautious to ensure she was following all the overreaching \nchief health officer&#8217;s directives, including not being more than 5km \nfrom her home and only exercising for less than an hour, but police \nstill fined her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The officers claimed it was illegal to protest!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last time I checked, lawful protest is legal. Especially when abiding by all the health directives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>There&#8217;s no way that Kerry can afford the enormous fine and we&#8217;re not&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>going to help her pay it.&nbsp;<em>No: we&#8217;re going to help her fight it!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;ve hired a top Melbourne lawyer, Madeleine Smith, who has agreed \nto take Kerry Cotterill on as a client \u2014 and to send us her legal bill. \nWe&#8217;re going to crowdfund that for her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, Madeline believes Kerry&#8217;s case is so important with such \nfar-reaching consequences that we&#8217;re also taking offensive action in the\n Supreme Court. Kerry Cotterill is also now a plaintiff in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.SaveVictoria.com.au\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>SaveVictoria.com.au<\/strong><\/a> proceedings against the chief health officer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Can you help us, help her?
