Barbed wire at the Showgrounds

This image was taken (but not used) for a story that ran in The Manawatu Evening Standard on 01 August 1981.

Army engineers from Linton camp erected barbed wire (made of three coils stacked in pyramid formation, held in place by stakes) under the cover of darkness the night before as a training exercise. They ran some 400 meters from Waldegrave Street to Pascal street.

The protesters were occasionally heckled by pro-tour members of the public. March chants included "Don't scrum with racist scum", and "We don't want your racist tour".
