‘It defies comprehension’: Lord mayor slams ‘sick’ series of posters across Melbourne

Melbourne lord mayor, Nick Reece, has slammed the “sick” series of posters, with over 50 popping up across the CBD recently.

The posters contain a photo of one of the alleged Bondi gunmen in Naveed Akram, with the word “Aussie” at the bottom.

“This has been clearly a deliberate and organised exercise to shock and spread hate, and we are not going to tolerate it at the City of Melbourne,” the lord mayor said on 3AW Drive.
