Threats against political leaders should always be taken seriously, says Prime Minister Anthony Albanese amid calls for heightened vigilance following the attempted assassination of Donald Trump.
The safety of elected officials is always under review, particularly after the shooting at the former US president's rally, he said on Wednesday.
"It is a dangerous world in which we live ... we are seeing an increased number of direct threats to MPs and to MPs' families and we need to make sure we're vigilant about it," he told reporters in Brisbane.
