Opposition Leader Matthew Guy used a visit to Pellegrini's Bar with Prime Minister Scott Morrison on Tuesday to assert the Coalition’s superior law and order credentials to Labor, vowing that a Coalition government would “make sure that every Melburnian is safe”.

Speaking at the corner of Bourke and Exhibition Streets, Mr Guy said Melburnians should not accept that violent crime is a fact of life in a growing city.

“I want to say again as a lifelong Melburnian, enough is enough for our city,” he said.

“We will not accept, whether it is terrorism or violent crime, that this is the new norm in our city, that this is going to be the norm for a city of 5 million plus people.”
