A Liberal MP Has Denied Confusing Her Opposition With Another ... (Junkee)

Sally Sitou has demanded an apology from Liberal MP Fiona Martin, asserting she confused her with another Asian Australian politician.

Martin holds the seat of Reid by a margin of 3.2 percent. I’d just like her to apologise for mistaking me for a different person. Throughout the debate, Martin questioned Sitou — raised in Cabramatta — on where she grew up. Campaigns are stressful and she made a mistake. “Either way, she should apologise.” Sitou is the only one of the pair to actually reside in the electorate currently, but Martin alleged that she only moved to the area because she “found an opportunity” and “couldn’t run in Fowler”. It’s worth noting that you don’t need to live in an electorate to run for that seat, which Martin would know because she does not live in Reid herself.
