The calls for an antisemitism royal commission, explained

from The Daily Aus · host The Daily Aus

In the aftermath of the Bondi terrorist attack, pressure is mounting for a federal Royal Commission into antisemitism in Australia. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has rejected the calls, but families of victims, business and sport leaders, some Labor MPs and the Opposition say it's essential after the country’s worst-ever terrorist attack. In today’s podcast, we’ll unpack the calls for a royal commission, what it actually is, and why the Prime Minister is suggesting it might delay action.  Hosts: Zara Seidler and Sam KoslowskiProducer: Orla Maher Want to support The Daily Aus?
