PoliticsAustralia news live: Pauline Hanson opposes major gun buyback agreed after Bondi terror attack

One Nation leader Pauline Hanson says she opposes the major gun buyback announced by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and NSW Premier Chris Minns. The scheme, legislated earlier this year in response to the Bondi beach terror attack, will run in two phases with costs split equally between the federal and NSW governments. Hanson says taxpayers should not fund it and argues it would affect law-abiding farmers who need guns.
