Australian man arrested, 40 dead in Christchurch mosque terror attackBreaking 40 people are believed to have lost their lives in the Christchurch terror attacks, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern confirms. Also dropped a 'we will protect you' into the media conference pretty much as expected! Will be working on how to turn this into a political scaremongering to try and save seats! 🤬🤬🤬 So, an Australian is in custody over the tragic mosque shooting. This is the result of constant racial/religious dog whistling. It's on the heads of any person in public life who has perpetuated this most disgusting of political strategies. This is the consequence of the Islamophobic and racist hate that has been normalised and legitimised by some politicians and media.
