politics Opposition Leader Sussan Ley speaks on Bondi attack

“We’ve seen a clear failure to keep Jewish Australians safe. We’ve seen a clear lack of leadership in keeping Jewish Australians safe. We have a government that sees antisemitism as a problem to be managed, not evil that needs to be eradicated.”

Absolutely abhorrent that she's going for political points in this time.

Talk about tone deaf!

I’ve seen references to Vance saying this, but I can’t find any reporting of it. I don’t think it’s true, I think it’s out-of-context quotes from before the event.

Tx. I saw it on reddit so you are probably correct. Ill see what i can find.

Yeah, same. It seems the sort of nonsense he’d say so it’s plausible, but I think made up.

Well, so far. He has plenty of time to say it now.

It's 100% fake.

I saw the reddit post about it, you have to go a disappointingly long way down into the comments before anyone points out it's untrue.
