Not just Leichhardt, but "at least six Labor branches have now passed motions backing Payman in the past 48 hours". This whole thing is just proving how corrupted the Labor Party has become. They won't stand up for their own members' beliefs.
idk much about politics or how the ALP works, and didn't even read the article, but unless there's something specific about Labor branches that have voted to support Albanese's position, it's one sided reporting by definition ...
Edit: I scanned the article and there appears to only be reporting on those 6 branches that were against the PM. For all we know, every other branch (hundreds?, thousands?) supports the PM. One sided.
You could say it's one-sided, but if it is that's because the other side is too timid to speak up for their view. How many branches have actually taken a vote and come down in favour of Israel? We don't know, because if they did, nobody's reporting on it.
So of the available evidence, it's a 100% pro-Palestine stance.
