Lidia Thorpe is not First Nations, she's just a pretender.
I'm Revoking her Indigenous card for 12 months.
Leaked email reveals Greens staffer ‘scared and in shock’ after Lidia Thorpe’s ‘truly awful’ outburst
Bandt concedes he should have acknowledged complaint about Thorpe
Greens senator Lidia Thorpe’s former chief of staff says he was scared and appalled by her outburst in a meeting with two Indigenous community leaders at Parliament House last year, describing her behaviour among the most unprofessional conduct he has ever witnessed.
The claims by Thorpe’s ex-top adviser reinforce the account of the meeting by Aboriginal elder Aunty Geraldine Atkinson, aged in her 70s, who has previously alleged the tirade of abuse levelled at her by the senator distressed her so much that she sought medical attention from the parliamentary nurse.
In a written complaint sent to Greens leader Adam Bandt following the meeting, Atkinson described Thorpe’s conduct as “vicious and personal” and “abusive”, and requested he take steps to ensure her complaint did not provoke further retaliation.
Some may think I'm being a bit harsh in my opinion of Lidia Thorpe, however I stand by it. Lidia Thorpe is only a 'First Nations' person when it suits her. If it makes her look good in front of her colleagues, or if it puts her in front of the TV cameras then, she is a 'proud indigenous person'. When in private she just behaves like a spoilt little brat who would not understand the first thing about the people she claims to represent. Thorpe should not be a Senator and her behaviour brings all of Australia, and especially First Nations people into disrepute.
This is just my opinion.
