Greens leader Adam Bandt has threatened Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus with legal action over remarks he made that Mr Bandt says were defamatory.
The federal government and opposition joined together in the House of Representatives on Wednesday to condemn the Greens and its response to the Israel-Gaza conflict.
Mr Bandt says his lawyers have written to the attorney-general to say he considers the comments he made on the program defamatory. Mr Dreyfus's comments were made outside the lower house chamber, and were not covered by parliamentary privilege. Frontbencher Katy Gallagher again restated the claim that the Greens were "misrepresenting the Commonwealth government's position".
