The NoToPope rally in Brisbane Square drew a small but largely enthusiastic crowd of about 70 participants and onlookers on Saturday.

Gay-themed chants were aired as about 50 protesters marched through Brisbane's central business district.

Chants included: "Racist, sexist anti-queer, get the Pope out of here", "Hey ho, hey ho, homophobia's got to go" and "Get your rosaries off my ovaries".

Wow, 70 people, I'm sure the Pope is all worried now.
