@TrainsInfo The whole design is flawed from end to end

[Josh Frydenberg @JoshFrydenberg]

Twenty five days after the Bondi massacre the Prime Minister has called a Commonwealth Royal Commission. 

I welcome the announcement and thank every Australian who advocated for it.

The Royal Commission is an opportunity to reset, rebuild and repair our nation.

I look forward to contributing to the Commission's work.

A Royal Commission is a vehicle for change but is not a guarantee of change.

To be effective it must shine a light on the darkest of places, expose the individuals, their motivations and the ideology that is driving the hate and provide a roadmap with practical recommendations to take us all forward.

It must be fiercely independent, rigorous, trusted and transparent.

The bar is high. 

The stakes are higher.

Nothing less than reform across society will do.

It is a tragic reality that antisemitism has become normalised in Australia.

It is a cancer that must be rooted out. 

The murder of fifteen innocent people at Bondi Beach did not occur in a vacuum. 

It was a predictable product of negligence and indifference to the rising tide of hate, harassment and violence experienced by the Australian Jewish community since the Hamas attack on October 7, 2023. 

There must be more education, more deradicalisation, greater law enforcement and better leadership. 

To protect our democracy, we must promote our democracy and the Australian values of tolerance, understanding and a fair go. 

This is not about politics, it has never been about politics.

It is about securing a better future, a brighter future, a safer future for all Australians.

This is why thousands of Australians from all walks of life and from every corner of our nation, joined with the families of the victims and took the unprecedented action to call on the Prime Minister to establish a Royal Commission. 

Now that a Royal Commission into antisemitism and the events leading up to the Bondi massacre has been established, Australians have their first real opportunity to get the answers they deserve and the solutions they need.

We are all heavily invested in making this Royal Commission a success.

The future of our country depends on it.

The rescue operation after yesterday's Russian missile attack continues.

As of now, 38 people have been reported dead, including four children. My condolences to all the families and friends affected by this tragedy.

190 people were injured and are receiving assistance. There are 64 people hospitalized in Kyiv, 28 in Kryvyi Rih, and 6 in Dnipro.

All patients from Okhmatdyt have been transferred to other medical institutions.

In some areas where the missiles hit, rescue operations continued throughout the night, involving almost 400 rescuers. I am grateful to everyone who is rescuing and caring for our people, to everyone involved, and to everyone who is helping.

We continue our work to increase the protection of our cities and communities from Russian terror. There will be decisions. The world has the necessary strength for this.

I also thank all the leaders who supported us and are preparing new joint steps to protect lives from Russian terror.

@WarintheFuture An well written and insightful article as always.

[Mick Ryan, AM @WarintheFuture]

A short thread on the year ahead. At Duntroon officer training, we were told on morning parades to ‘ponder the day ahead’. It was wise advice. Currently, strategists will be pondering the year ahead for national security affairs. 1/15🧵

@WarintheFuture @casematepub Reading it as we speak - very poignant and insightful!

@sydneyswans End of an era - was privileged to see him play for both the Hawks and Swans. I’m sure he will move on to greater things and hopefully not be lost to AFL for ever!

In a 1973 lecture Sir Michael Howard discussed surprise, noting “this is an aspect...which needs to be studied above all others in the Armed Forces: the capacity to adapt oneself to the utterly unpredictable, the entirely unknown. Today, another surprise. 1/25🧵
