Australia censures Indigenous senator for bizarre King Charles protest

Australia censures Indigenous senator for bizarre King Charles protest The Aussie Senate has voted to censure Independent Senator Lidia Thorpe for her outburst at King Charles III during his first visit Down Under in 13 years last month. It is a symbolic gesture of disapproval of her conduct. Thorpe screamed at Charles during a reception, saying “not our king“ and “not sovereign,“ reflecting ongoing tensions over the alleged mistreatment of Indigenous Australians. Pakistan-born Deputy leader of the Green Party, Mehreen Faruqi, labeled the censure a “disgrace” on the floor of the Senate. #Canberra - Boost Source: RT News
