Today, I have written to the Prime Minister concerning the citizenship status of Senator Payman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under Section 44 of the Constitution, there are serious questions about her eligibility to serve as a senator due to her dual citizenship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Senator Payman’s recent announcement about forming a new political party, likely utilising her position as a Senator to form a parliamentary political party, it’s imperative that we address her status swiftly ahead of the upcoming federal election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I have called for a transparent process to examine her situation, suggesting a bipartisan approach to resolve these constitutional concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Senator Payman should be afforded every opportunity to refer herself to the High Court to clarify her eligibility to sit as a Senator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If she chooses not to take this step, it then falls to the Senate to make that referral.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our commitment to upholding the Constitution must be unwavering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I urge the Prime Minister to act promptly to maintain the integrity of our parliament and ensure the Australian public can have full confidence in the legitimacy of their elected representatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

We owe the Australian people thorough and decisive action on this matter.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Yes you do owe it to the Australian people Mr. Albanese.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
