| Australia revokes visa of British man who displayed Nazi symbol, advocated for violence against Jews |

| [IsraelTimes] Australia canceled the visa of a British national after he was charged with displaying a banned Nazi symbol, the immigration minister says, as the country cracks down on antisemitism in the wake of a terror attack targeting a Hanukkah event at Bondi Beach. The government revoked the visa of a 43-year-old man who was charged on December 8 with displaying a Nazi symbol and advocating for violence against the Jewish community on social media platform X, according to Australian Federal Police. “If you come to Australia on a visa, you are here as a guest,” Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke tells the Australian Broadcasting Corp, referring to the British citizen. “If someone comes here for the purposes of hate, they can leave,” he says. Burke and the federal police do not name the British man but the federal police say he displayed the Nazi Hakenkreuz – a type of swastika – and espoused “pro-Nazi ideology with a specific hatred of the Jewish community” from two X accounts from October to November. After having his visa revoked, the man, who was living in the state of Queensland, was taken into immigration detention and will be deported unless he voluntarily leaves first, media reports say. |
