One Nation NSW leader Mark Latham has threatened to countersue independent MP Alex Greenwich if he continues with a lawsuit against him. 
Mr Greenwich said on May 1 he was suing Mr Latham for defamation after the One Nation politician refused to apologise for a homophobic tweet he made in March.
The Sydney MP also filed complaints with the NSW Police and Anti-Discrimination NSW on the grounds of vilification.
Mr Latham has refused to apologise for the tweet and continued his latest attack against Mr Greenwich on May 3 accusing him of 'starting' the online feud.
His comment comes as Pauline Hanson revealed she still supported Mr Latham as NSW leader even though she condemned him for the tweet.

'He provoked this, he started this.

Where's the apology for describing me as "a disgusting human being"?' Mr Latham said. 
He added that if Mr Greenwich 'persists' in suing him 'I'll have a counterclaim. If he wants to talk slander, (what he said it) completely slanderous.'
Mr Greenwich's problems with the One Nation MP also include their opposing views on transgender issues with Mr Latham taking a more conservative stance.
The One Nation leader said he didn't think his views were controversial. 
'What have I said about transgender?

I've consistently said if you're an adult over the age of 18 and you want to change your gender every other day, well, that's your business,' he said.
'It's not a concern of government or anyone else. You're an adult, you can make these decisions. 
'You want to be a male one day, female the next, back to being a male.

If you're an adult, you do whatever you think is in your interest, but leave the kids alone.
'That's all I've ever said. Leave the kids alone.'
One Nation's founder and national leader Pauline Hanson said she supports Mr Latham, despite previously denouncing his homophobic tweet, but that she wants answers from him about his behaviour.

'But it's something that I've only had a brief conversation with Mark about since then,' she said.
'I've got two people who who work in her office are gay and that she doesn't 'have an issue with that'. 
Ms Hanson said she believed Mr Latham was doing an excellent job representing the interests of the party.
'He's got an eight-year term. So all I expect of Mark is to do the job that he's been doing for the last four years and represent the people of NSW to the best of his ability and be that voice,' she said. 
Ms Hanson had previously slammed Mr Latham for making the tweet in a damning video on Facebook.
She made it clear that her party did not 'condone' his comments.
She called on Mr Latham to make a public apology and added that she had tried to call him a couple of times 'to no avail'.
'I want you to know that I don't condone them and neither do my members of parliament or party associates. I think they are disgusting,' she said.
'I've actually tried to ring Mark a couple of times, to no avail. And I have clearly sent a text message to him, telling him my views.
'I've asked him to give the people an apology. I will leave it at that. It is now over to Mark to answer to the people.'
