Donna Demaio: Australia Correspondent on Lidia Thorpe heckling King Charles and the reaction from politicians

Early Edition with Ryan Bridge - Ein Podcast von Newstalk ZB

Australian politicians from both sides have denounced Independent indigenous Senator Lidia Thorpe's expletive-laden outburst at King Charles' reception in Canberra.   Thorpe, a Senator for Victoria, began yelling as the King's speech ended and claimed he'd committed genocide against her people.   She says the King destroyed her land, and the country wants a treaty.   Australia correspondent Donna Demaio told Ryan Bridge it's been labelled childish.   She says front-benchers from both sides say it was grandstanding and failed miserably.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
