Why Fatima Payman crossed the floor


Listen Later

On Tuesday night, WA Senator Fatima Payman did what no Labor Government member had done since 1988 - she crossed the floor of the Senate to vote against her party. Payman voted with the Greens and two independents on a motion asking the Senate to urgently recognise a Palestinian state. In today’s deep dive, we’ll explore her historic move, why she did it, and what’s next.
