An Indigenous Australian senator was removed from a parliamentary reception in Australia for protesting against King Charles III. The incident occurred when Senator Lidia Thorpe shouted "You are not our king!" following the monarch's address in Canberra. She was escorted out by security while continuing her protest. This unfolded after leaders of all six Australian states declined to attend the royal reception hosted by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese.
