Description:

More than three weeks since the Bondi terror attack, the federal government has announced a royal commission into antisemitism and social cohesion.

Since the massacre, Anthony Albanese has resisted calls to establish an inquiry. 

But after widespread pressure continued to mount, the PM has reversed course, now defending his decision to not call an inquiry sooner.

Today, ABC political editor Jacob Greber on how the government was forced to act, and the CEO of the New South Wales Jewish Board of Deputies, Michelle Goldman on the reaction from the Jewish community.
