TLDR

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has announced that the government will separate gun control measures from proposed hate speech laws, acknowledging that the racial vilification provisions do not have the support of the Senate. The government will instead focus on introducing new gun control laws, including a national gun buyback scheme and stricter rules on gun importation, following opposition from the Coalition and the Greens to the hate speech legislation.
