I wonder what the lag time is going to be, before the punditry and politicians take this seriously.

So far the Libs have only seen this latest wave as an opportunity to cultivate new support, particularly during the pandemic.

Can't see Dutton cutting the last lifeline he has in a hurry.

He said his client had a firearms licence and an interest in firearms.

"There is no suggestion that he committed a terror attack," Mr Henchcliffe said.
