Mr Farley, in the same ABC interview, also appeared to refuse to back Senator Hanson\u2019s promise to challenge a Federal Court ruling that she had breached section 18C of the Racial Discrimination Act by telling Greens deputy leader Mehreen Faruqi to \u201cpiss off back to Pakistan\u201d in a social media post in 2022. <\/p>\n
Asked if he supported changing the Act, Mr Farley said: \u201cI\u2019m not convinced that we need to go and change anything at the moment.\u201d<\/p>\n
Over the weekend, The Saturday Paper reported that Mr Farley had confided in parliamentary colleagues that he was struggling to develop a working relationship with Mr Joyce, who has frequently used the Farrer MP\u2019s status as a \u201cnew\u201d member of parliament to justify the apparent missteps.<\/p>\n
But Mr Joyce on Monday told ABC Radio National he was unaware of any plan for Mr Farley to exit the team. <\/p>\n
\u201cI had a conversation with him nearly a day or so ago, and that was completely the opposite of what he said to me,\u201d the New England MP said. <\/p>\n
\u201cI mean, this is in every party, you have to go through the discussion, the process, and you know, and David is an incredibly important part of that.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s incredibly competent, and you know \u2026 an asset to the party. And we want to make sure that we can we continue on with that.<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course the media have a lot of fun with people if they can smell blood on the water.\u201d<\/p>\n
Two months prior to Mr Farley\u2019s appearance on the ABC, Senator Hanson confirmed she was forced to intervene after he reportedly planned to display three flags in his electorate office, the Australian, the Aboriginal and the Torres Strait Islander flags, contravening party policy.<\/p>\n
Mr Farley later issued a statement that his office would only fly the Australian flag in a position \u201cconsistent with One Nation policy\u201d. <\/p>\n
In the lead-up to his election in May, Mr Farley\u2019s past political allegiances came under intense scrutiny after Nine Newspapers reported he donated to and spent two years trying to join the Labor Party under Anthony Albanese. <\/p>\n
