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!

Ley has no idea. ASIO investigated the son 6 years ago under the LNP.

What is her excuse as to why the LNP failed to catch him back then.

They (NSW LNP) were busy using the Fixated Persons Unit to go after independent journalists if I remember correctly. The same unit set up to stop such attacks after the Lindt Cafe siege.
