NDIS Minister Bill Shorten says Prime Minister Anthony Albanese “tried to handle” Senator Fatima Payman’s defection the “very best way possible”.
Ms Payman left the Labor Party after being indefinitely suspended when she warned she was prepared to cross the floor again regarding Palestine.
“I thought the suspension was the right way to go; it was saying you are welcome, Fatima, and let’s give you a bit of time and space to work it through - clearly, that’s not where her head was at, she’s walked,” Mr Shorten told Sky News Australia.
“I don’t think there’s anything else the Prime Minister could have done, frankly.”
