Thorpe: Price’s comments on colonialism are ‘Liberal-National Coalition rhetoric’
Lidia Thorpe is asked about comments made by no campaigner and senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price at the press club, that colonisation hadn’t had long-lasting negative impacts on First Nations people.
It’s a Liberal-National Coalition rhetoric and that’s that’s what we need out in the open for this country to understand what we have to deal with.
I think having the Jacinta Prices’ and others like her speaking about colonisation and racism is exactly what we need to rid in this country.
