Pretty sure he hasn't talk to Abbott yet

I didnt think so, just seemed like a possibility given the information we are getting.

I'm social media retarded, I'm assuming that's a date stamp to a post or something... I'm assuming this guy is based in Australia somewhere as well and is not in a different time zone...

Ohhh same here haha. That sounds about right though.

 

[BLIT2014]

Have they gotten any info from the hostages who have been realesed ?

No media outlets that I've been refreshing etc have released any information...

We expect a news conference in around twenty minutes headed by the NSW premier Mike Baird and the NSW police commissioner Andrew Scipione.

TEN news has received a video in which a #lindtcafe hostage relays the gunman's demands. At police request we will not broadcast it.

7 News is reporting that one of the women that escaped was pregnant and went to the hospital for necessary checks.

Australians take to twitter with the #illridewithyou in a campaign to ride with those who may be affected by bigotry by members of the public, and will ride with them on public transport to support them, figuratively and literally.
Twitter has been inundated with pictures, and people posting that they are at a certain bus stop or station and will travel with them to give them support if they may receive any racial abuse as a result.
Those who take transport should still be wary of any of these posts however.
