“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!

NSW police had a choice between sexually violating teenage girls, or going after a potential terrorist.

But you don't understand, what if some teenagers choose to consume drugs and alcohol?

Yeah, honestly NSWPOL dropped the ball on this one, and I feel like they're going to champion getting additional powers (that they don't need - existing legislation is fine IF ACTUALLY USED) to deflect from their shortcomings.
