King Charles III was accused of being responsible for “genocide” by an indigenous Senator in the Australian Parliament.
Charles and Queen Camilla have been in Australia on their first tour since he became the country’s king when Queen Elizabeth II died in September 2022. The British Monarch is head of state in 14 countries outside Britain, which are known as Commonwealth Realms.
Senator Lidia Thorpe was escorted out of Parliament after shouting: “You committed genocide against our people. Give us our land back.
“Give us what you stole from us. Our bones, our skulls, our babies, our people. You destroyed our land.
“Give us our treaties. We want a treaty in this country. You are a genocidalist. This is not your land, this is not your land.”
“You are not my king,” she added, “you are not our king, this is not your land.”
This is a developing story and will be updated.
