Hate speech laws will be expanded to directly target “hate preachers” under a new push to stamp out antisemitism, as Anthony Albanese concedes more could have been done to combat anti-Jewish sentiment ahead of the Bondi beach massacre.

The home affairs minister will also be granted powers to cancel and reject visas of people who spread “hate and division” under a five-point plan announced on Thursday, after days of intensifying pressure on the prime minister to do more to address antisemitism and radicalisation after Sunday’s terrorist attack on a Hanukah celebration.
