    Hope it results in easier access to free mental health programmes. Like how Port Arthur led to the expensive (and politically brave) gun buyback scheme.

      That’d be ideal but you know that the perpetrator isn’t white the LNP is going to flog their heritage as the cause. Particularly as their main line of attack at the moment is “Labor is soft on migration”
