Senator Fatima Payman has announced
Senator Fatima Payman has announced her resignation from the Labor Party to sit as an independent, saying her conscience had left her "no choice".
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese indefinitely suspended the Western Australian senator from the Labor caucus on Sunday after she vowed in an interview to continue crossing the floor of parliament in support of Palestinian statehood.
The prime minister had previously banned Payman from a single party room meeting after she broke ranks last week to vote in favour of a Greens motion calling for Australia to formally recognise a Palestinian state.
