One Nation's Mark Latham has condemned the violence during a wild protest which erupted outside a church in Sydney's south-west where he was set to give a speech, as police arrest two people following the clash.
Mr Latham condemned the violence during the protest in an interview with ABC's 2GB host Ben Fordham on Wednesday morning.
Mr Latham was set to discuss a number of topics at the event at the church including school education, religious freedoms and parental rights. "I think blocking roads and access to churches is definitely wrong in that setting, people like myself, a politician running for elected office, should be allowed to make his speech without that kind of action.
