Roy Butler MP condemns Bondi attack
Member for Barwon, Roy Butler MP, has issued a statement following the tragic attack at Bondi Beach yesterday, December 14, 2025.
I am deeply shocked and saddened by the tragic events that unfolded in Bondi yesterday.
This senseless act of violence has no place in our society.
The disregard for human life is abhorrent, and my heart goes out to all those affected.
My thoughts remain firmly with the victims, their families, and the first responders and medical teams who continue to work tirelessly in the aftermath of this tragedy.
I stand united with our community in condemning this act of hate and reaffirm my commitment to supporting those impacted.
We must not allow such acts to divide us. Instead, I urge everyone to come together in solidarity, compassion, and resilience. This is a time to support one another and uphold the values that bind us together.
When horrific events like this occur, there is often a risk of copycat offences.
There is zero tolerance for such ignorance, destruction and violence.
