Labor senator Sam Dastyari has been racially heckled by a group of people calling themselves “patriots” and “working class” men at a Melbourne pub.
“You terrorist, you little monkey!” one of the men shouts at the Labor backbencher, after a camera is thrust in his face.
“Why don’t you go back to Iran, you terrorist,” he continues.
Footage of the incident was posted on the Facebook page of the group, Patriot Blue, on Wednesday night. Senator Dastyari was at the pub ahead of an event promoting his book in Footscray.
He was accompanied by Labor MP Tim Watts, who is seen trying to intervene in the incident.
Senator Dastyari tries to order a drink at the bar as one of the men pushes the camera closer to his face.
“Have another drink mate, is it halal certified?” the man continues.
