Monarch Responds Gracefully After Unexpected Incident in Parliament
King Charles has issued a message of peace following an unexpected confrontation with an anti-monarchist during his visit to Australia. The incident occurred at Australia’s Parliament House, where MP Lidia Thorpe interrupted the King, shouting, "You are not my King." Security officials quickly removed her from the scene.
In response, Buckingham Palace released a video of King Charles greeting children during the tour, in which he expressed his gratitude, saying, "I cannot begin to express how pleased we are to be here again." The video, showcasing the King’s calm and composed demeanor, aimed to refocus attention on the positive aspects of the visit.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese responded warmly to the King’s message, wishing him a "splendid stay" on behalf of all Australians. King Charles and Queen Camilla had kicked off their tour with a warm reception at Sydney airport, marking the monarch’s first major royal tour since ascending the throne.
