Python for a desktop app

I currently have a .NET app that I want to convert to being cross platform, as a growing number of my users want a Mac version. Since this forum doesn’t seem to like questions that are “what languages are suitable for these requirements”, I’ll focus this question on Python as the language of choice. Will Python be a good fit for the requirements below? Drawbacks?

How should I connect to my php framework to use methods written in the framework, in a framework agnostic environment?

My company runs 2 websites, a public facing website for clients, and an employee intranet. The intranet is used as a backend for employees to edit and maintain various parts of the public website. Both are written in PHP. The intranet is years older, and was designed using an inhouse framework. We have recently created a new public website, and because of the opportunity to “start from scratch” with it, we designed it using a PHP framework (Kohana). We knew from the beginning that there would be implementation issues with getting the intranet to interact with the public site, and vice-versa. We are now at that point.
