Aunty Violet Sheridan says the Victorian senator ‘does not speak for me and my people’ and called her yelling of ‘fuck the colony’ inappropriate
Who is Lidia Thorpe, the Australian senator who accused King Charles of genocide?
A Ngunnawal elder has rebuked Lidia Thorpe over her confrontation with King Charles, saying the Victorian senator doesn’t speak for her people and that her comments of “fuck the colony” were “disrespectful”.
Aunty Violet Sheridan, 69, met the royals as part of an official greeting party on Monday and was sitting near the king in Parliament House when Thorpe “jumped out”, marched forward and started shouting at the royals. Thorpe yelled at the king to “give us our land back”, and shouted “fuck the colony” and “you are not my king”.
