‘A disgrace’: Lidia Thorpe slammed over Senate outburst

Former Victorian Liberal Party president Michael Kroger blasts Independent Senator Lidia Thorpe after she attempted to interrupt Senate proceedings by screaming into the chamber through closed doors. “I think she’s been a disgrace to herself, to the Greens that she was formerly a member of for picking her in the first place,” Mr Kroger said. “People are tired of this. They think it’s rubbish, they don’t like her, and they can’t wait to get rid of her.”
