Australia Launches Hate Crime Database, Bondi Massacre Sparks Debate
Update: 2025-12-24
Description
Australias new national database aims to combat hate crimes, following the deadliest terror attack in the countrys history. The database, launched after the Bondi massacre, will initially focus on convictions but will expand to include charges. The attack has sparked debate, with some calling for a national royal commission, while the government prefers a faster review of intelligence and law enforcement. Public approval for the Prime Minister has dropped, and pollster Kos Samaras warns of potential voter alienation due to partisan fights over anti-Semitism and the attack. Despite this, Albanese has invited Israeli President Isaac Herzog for a visit, signaling ongoing commitment to combat hate.
