One Nation senator Rod Culleton says he's not considering quitting the party and becoming an independent despite his rift with leader Pauline Hanson.

After she lashed him earlier this month, saying he was not a team player and his time in politics had "gone to his head", the rogue West Australian senator said he would absolutely consider his future with the party over Christmas.

He told reporters in Perth on Monday, however, he was "not even thinking about that" but criticised Senator Hanson's call to ban burqas and also her support of the majority Australian acquisition of the Kidman cattle empire.

"I'll stay with One Nation," he said.
