Earlier this week, Independent Senator Fatima Payman accused One Nation Senator Pauline Hanson of racism. The videos of Payman and Hanson went viral online, and have since resulted in another senator, Lidia Thorpe, being suspended from the Senate. It came after Hanson tried to refer Payman to a committee on the basis of her holding dual citizenship and thus being ineligible to sit in Parliament. In today's deep dive, we'll explain the origin of this story, what dual citizenship means for parliamentarians and what's happened since.
