Stunned Albanese says Coalition ‘playing politics’ as Ley calls hate speech reforms ‘pretty unsalvageable’
AI Summary
Australia's opposition leader, Sussan Ley, has deemed the Albanese government's proposed hate speech and anti-vilification legislation "pretty unsalvageable." This stance comes after the Coalition previously called for immediate parliamentary action to address antisemitism following the Bondi beach terror attacks on December 14th. The Coalition now signals opposition to the laws, which are set to be introduced to parliament next week and include a national gun buyback scheme. The Albanese government has criticized the Coalition's position as hypocritical, while Prime Minister Albanese accused the Coalition of "playing politics" with the issue. The disagreement highlights a growing divide between the major parties regarding the proposed reforms.
