Christmas is a time to give back. Bill Crews and the Exodus Foundation do that all year round and on Christmas they offer meals and festive cheer to Australians doing it tough. Thanks to the volunteers here today and all over the country. Merry Christmas.

Seasons greetings from our family and our home here in Australia 🇦🇺 to you and your loved ones across the country, across America and throughout the world. As we remember the great suffering of our Jewish brothers and sisters barely a week ago in Sydney, our prayer is that all

Tonight we stood together as Australians. To reject antisemitism. To remember the precious lives we lost one week ago. And to wrap our arms around the Jewish community who are grieving. This has been a dark week for Australia, but we will never let hate divide us.

We'll do what it takes to stamp out antisemitism in this country, with new laws and stronger penalties against hate speech.

Tonight and over the coming days, we are holding the Jewish community close. For the 8 nights of Chanukah, Jewish families around the world fill their windows with light - something that has been passed down through generations. Tonight, I am lighting a candle in solidarity

Today I convened National Cabinet to respond to the act of terror and antisemitism in Bondi last night. We stand with Jewish Australians and we stand against hatred and violence. Australia is stronger than those who try to divide us and we will come through this together.

The dedication and commitment of police officers was on full display last night, when off-duty officers turned up to Bondi to help. They are the best of Australia. I received a briefing at Bondi Police Station and was able to thank many Officers personally. Thank you to all

Australia will not be divided by hate or violence. We will confront it head on. And we will stand together in solidarity with Jewish Australians and with one another.

Thank you to @SecRubio for welcoming me so warmly to Washington DC ahead of AUSMIN. For 40 years, AUSMIN has enabled foreign and defence consultations during periods of great strategic change and challenge. Together, we’re working to shape the Indo-Pacific for the better.
