With clockwork precision and heralded by wailing sirens Destiny church and political party guru Brian Tamaki has arrived at the speakers' platform for his Defend the Legacy anti-Civil Unions protest. Prior to his arrival a small group of anti-Destiny protesters shouting pro-glbt and pro-Civil Unions slogans were surrounded by Destiny acolytes and drowned out by an on-stage band which blasted the central-city Auckland park with music. GayNZ.com reporters say the march and counter-protest remained peaceful throughout its Queen Street route with some glbt protesters managing to have "fairly civil" discussions with Destiny Members. A revision of the numbers of Destiny and allied fundamentalist Christian church protesters taking part now puts the numbers at nearer 8,000 and one reporter said it took eight minutes to walk with the march from the bottom of Queen Street to Myers park where Destiny and other fundamentalist leaders are about to speak. Wild chanting and cheering has greeted Tamaki's arrival on the platform.
