Liberal Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price has been accused of sharing anti-immigrant sentiment that falsely claimed Labor was "importing" Indian migrants.
Last year, the Northern Territory Senator was sacked from Sussan Ley's opposition frontbench after refusing to support her leadership following comments suggesting the federal government's migration program favoured importing people from India to win Labor votes.
She later clarified her remarks that she initially made on the ABC, after being rebuked by numerous Coalition MPs, but refused to apologise.
On Sunday, Senator Nampijinpa Price shared a post on X from the right-wing podcast 2 Worlds Collide, hosted by Sam Bamford and on which she previously appeared, which reiterated many of the Senator's previous talking points.
First reported by The Australian, the clip responds to the ABC's Insiders program discussing Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's meeting with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his recent visit and whether Labor is attempting to woo the Indian diaspora for electoral gain.
Mr Bamford states: "We're just importing Indians for votes. That's pretty much what the ABC just said."
"It was not only a year ago that they came after Jacinta Price for pretty much saying the exact same thing," he said, later arguing the ABC needed to apologise to Senator Nampijinpa Price after it "came after" her for saying the same thing.
There is no evidence that Australia imports any ethnic group over another, due to the country's non-discriminatory migration policy.
A spokesperson for the Senator — who was reinstated to the shadow cabinet under Angus Taylor and is now the opposition skills and small business spokeswoman — told The Australian she reposted the clip "to highlight the ABC's commentary around the Prime Minister's engagement with the Indian-Australian community during Prime Minister Modi's visit".
"The repost was not an endorsement of every comment made by the podcast host," the spokesman told the publication, though the spokesperson did not specify which parts of the clip Senator Nampijinpa Price agreed with.
"Senator Nampijinpa Price has consistently argued Labor's migration settings should be debated on their merits, including whether migration levels are aligned with Australia's housing and infrastructure capacity."
It is not the first time the Senator has been forced to distance herself from some of Mr Bamford's comments.
In May, she denied agreeing with the conservative podcaster that Australia should stop "hundreds of thousands of Indians, Chinese, Africans, Middle Easterns, and Gazans" from "flooding" the country after appearing on his show, saying she does not endorse "discrimination based on race, ethnicity or religion".
