Did anyone see that King Charles was heckled in Australia this week by an Australian senator, Lidia Thorpe.

She shouted at him "you are not my King, this is not your land, you have stolen our land".

Any thoughts?

I didn't see any thread on it, so I started this one.

She’s entitled to object. There was no violence and no law broken.

These tours of the former Empire nations look more and more anachronistic to me tbh.

What about yelling 'murder' at women going into abortion clinics?

No violence, no law broken - fine by you?

She can make her point; it's valid.

But yelling at people like this is just rude and obnoxious. Bit of an own goal.really

Not bothered. She's entitled to her opinion. Maybe a bit tasteless in light of his cancer diagnosis, but if he's still performing the role of King then I think people are entitled to object also.
