Greens leader Adam Bandt chastises Labor over treatment of Senator Fatima Payman | 7.30

Описание: Greens leader Adam Bandt has stopped short of saying whether the Greens would put forward another motion to the Senate for the Australian Government to recognise the state of Palestine.

"We want the government to shift its position," Mr Bandt told 7.30.

"There's been multiple opportunities for Labor to put some pressure on Benjamin Netanyahu, it is just wrong that Labor is putting more pressure on Senator Payman than on Benjamin Netanyahu."

Senator Payman was suspended from the Labor caucus at the weekend after she said she would again cross the floor if faced with another Senate motion to recognise the state of Palestine.
