Peter Dutton says Anthony Albanese should remove Labor senator Fatima Payman from the party after she referenced 'from the river to the sea' — a pro-Palestinian chant condemned by the Senate in a move that has been labelled 'misconceived' by Muslim groups.
Opposition leader Peter Dutton says Labor senator Fatima Payman should be removed from her party after she repeated a pro-Palestinian chant and broke ranks to accuse Israel of genocide. Dutton's comments come after Labor and Opposition senators voted on Thursday to condemn the "from the river to the sea" chant , which Payman referenced on Wednesday when she became the first federal Labor parliamentarian to publicly describe what is happening in Gaza as genocide .
"What's appropriate is a two-state solution where both Israelis and Palestinians have the right to live in peace and prosperity," he told ABC radio. "It is not in the interests of either Israelis or Palestinians to advocate there just be one state that is a forerunner of enormous conflict and grief and we are seeing enormous grief in Gaza.
