| Description | Senator Fraser Anning has been expelled from the Katter's Australian Party (KAP) due to his views on immigration and race.
The Queensland senator's time in Federal Parliament has been tumultuous, with him leaving One Nation just hours before being sworn in to the Upper House after a spat with leader Pauline Hanson.
He joined KAP after a short stint as an independent and was criticised for using the term "final solution" during his first speech on migration.
At the time, KAP leader Bob Katter strongly supported Senator Anning's speech, describing it as "solid gold".
But on Thursday, Mr Katter said the party's executive decided only "99 per cent" of it was solid gold, and that the rest was "totally unacceptable". |
