As it happens, in QLD anyway, the right to peaceful assembly is enshrined in law:
http://www.legislation.qld.gov.au/LEGISLTN/CURRENT/P/PeacefulAssA92.pdf I think one of the problems with the 'Occupy' crew was that they could not provide an acceptable notice of assembly, as they could not guarantee an end date. I have no problem with the law the way it is - assemble all you want, but do so in an orderly way (and in accordance with the laws designed to protect the general public from danger and general nuisance).

Better yet obtain an "ANOTATED" constitution, it is NOT a stand alone document, it includes several others, including Magna Carta AND a bill of rights, among others.
The only reason why we "have no rights" is because we have been trained to think we have none & rarely "take it to the high court".
Almost every citizen who has, wins against bureaucrooks & politicians.
