Clive Palmer party volunteer 'exposes himself' at polling booth
A man – believed to be a United Australia Party volunteer – has been fined for allegedly exposing himself at a polling booth in Sydney's southwest.
Police were called to Bankstown Public School on Restwell Street about 10am on Saturday after being told a 67-year-old man had been involved in a dispute with several people.
"It's alleged the man then committed an offensive act in front of them," a spokeswoman said on Saturday.
In footage obtained by SBS, the man is wearing a United Australia Party T-shirt and cap.
A Labor volunteer told the media outlet the man was “aggressive and problematic” and started verbally abusing her.

When she moved away, she claimed the man then undid his zip.
“I was a bit horrified ... We're in a public space,” she said.
The man was issued an infringement notice for offensive conduct as well as a move-on direction.
