Fatima Payman is on a collision course with Anthony Albanese, saying she would defy the prime minister and cross the floor again to back an independent Palestinian state.
Renegade Labor senator Fatima Payman would defy Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and cross the floor again to express her support for an independent Palestinian state, placing her future in the Labor Party in grave doubt.
Payman said it was the prime minister’s prerogative to suspend her from caucus for a week after she crossed the floor, but had no regrets over the decision. She pushed back against suggestions that she could leave the party, arguing the broader membership supported her actions in support of the Palestinian people.“I do not intend on leaving the party, because I firmly believe that I’ve upheld all the values of what as the Labor Party we should stand for,” she said.
