The Australian Senate has voted 46-12 to censure independent Senator Lidia Thorpe for her protest against King Charles III, marking a symbolic disapproval of her actions during his visit. Thorpe's outburst, which included accusations of genocide, highlights ongoing tensions regarding colonial history and Indigenous rights. While some lawmakers condemned her behavior as disrespectful, others defended her actions as a necessary expression of Indigenous frustration. Despite the censure, Thorpe remains steadfast, promising to continue speaking out against perceived injustices.
