Fatima Payman to announce new political party

Sky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell joins to discuss Senator Fatima Payman who is set to announce the formation of her new political party.

“Sky News can confirm that Fatima Payman will announce a new political party that she is forming, potentially on the floor of the Senate, but certainly in Canberra this week,” Mr Clennell said.

“It won’t be restricted to the Palestine or Israel issue … it will involve platforms around youth issues, aged care, housing affordability.”

Why doesnt she go to gaza and run for office?

[tqzmyrl]

I thought she has dual citizenship so shouldn’t be able to be in parliament

[sashasavisha]

As an American this is a hard No. You don’t want these people in your government. 🇦🇺🇺🇸

No to Sharia Law Parties in a Democracy.

[Rivalry.]

The hidden agendas are strong in this one.

Is the new the Hamas party??? Very disturbing

[corazondelacruz]

There you go - Fatima Palin creating a political party using her platform to promote Palestine. She should go back to her own country of heritage and save her people and not bring division to Australia. This was will never be solved because of tolerance of the new country they move in. They will never integrate but expand and one day we wake up under the realm of these people.

And on Oct 7. This woman is another failure with Islamic scales on her eyes.

[KIA-MIA-POW]

This is no accident announcing this on 7 October. Evil woman!

Why is she even in a position to do so? If the electorate support this and it is questioned and scrutinized closely then there will be severe consequences for the country.

Hopefully she will not be supported by the electorate.

When you move from your home land for socio or economic reasons (home land sucks), to move to a free land where you yourself are free, only to attempt to shape those around you like your home land.

I don’t understand why you invite the Trojan horse thru the gate. You are gonna regret this.

Look at what is happening in the UK, England has fallen, we are next

[edmurks]

Is this the woman who said she was not going to form a new party. She said she was loyal to labor . Is there anything this woman can be believed about?Plus she wants 5 new staff to be paid by the taxpayer when she is not entitled to them. Well she thinks she is.

[southernmike]

Why can't she enter politics in one of her muslim countries.... NO MUSLIMS IN AUSTRALIAN POLITICS! NO MUSLIMS IN AUSTRALIA!!!!

[heygeorgiecomau]

If she forms a party she should be removed from the senate as that party has no sanction, and she has made it into parliament on a labor ticket her seat should have a by election.

[MegaStooi]

The danger is, after her treacherous departure, she has gotten a lot of publicity. She is very active on social media, especially tik tok so I am afraid she may get support from the young. Just remember, being able to talk gibberish in parliament, doesn't mean she is capable of representing Australians. The fair minded, loyal, peace loving Australians must not endorse and vote for this divisive and pro Palestinian labor traitor.

[Rich]

What country is this again, WTF definitely not Australia ❤

[oldnutta]

Will be interesting to see what the electorate thinks about this new party.
