Brittany Higgins’ husband David Sharaz has reportedly been banned from the National Press Club after the campaign group he works for disrupted a speech by Pauline Hanson.
A projector screen dropped behind the One Nation leader mid-speech on June 17 with a banner which said: ‘I opposed a pay rise to workers while I took a $100,000 pay rise for myself.’
Sharaz, GetUp!’s media and campaigns lead, was seated in the audience.
The National Press Club chief executive Maurice Reilly said on Wednesday he has declined Sharaz’s membership application and banned him from all events.
‘He is not welcome at the club in the future,’ he said in a statement to Nine News.
The Daily Mail understands no formal decision regarding Sharaz’s membership application has been communicated to either GetUp! or Sharaz.
More to come.
