On 28 April, 1996 at Port Arthur, 35 lives were stolen in the worst mass shooting in our nation’s history, an atrocity seared in our collective memory.
Just as the grief of those who lost loved ones has not faded with time, the devastation of Port Arthur still resonates with all Australians.

Enough is enough.
Violence against women has to stop.

If you see something wrong, speak up.
My government will do everything we can to end this scourge.
