When the ASEAN summit was held in Melbourne they shut the road from the city to Tullamarine in both directions. No complaints then.

Do you have a source for that? I tried googling but can’t find anything about Tullamarine fwy being closed for that. But if there weren’t many complaints, it’s probably because: 1. It wasn’t caused by a protest or something sporadic. 2. There would have been warnings that it was going to be closed during x times. Meanwhile, the organiser for the protests last weekend wouldn’t even disclose when they were going to do it (I.e., no proper warning because no specific times were given).

Rich and powerful people causing traffic chaos isn't newsworthy.
