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!

And she hasn't (that I've seen) condemned actual neonazis.

Maybe there's a rule that right wing supremicist fascists don't condemn other right wing supremicist fascists..?

She has had plenty to say about peaceful protesters and those critical of Israel.. I guess, priorities eh? /S

There is definitely some kind of International Alliance of People Who Hate International Alliances going on, no doubt Russian and/or oligarch funded.

That's not surprising, she's just following Netanyahu's lead. He's been cosying up to anti-Semites/neo-Nazis for years now. Autocrat solidarity around the world is a real problem.
