OPINION - Can King Charles and the British monarchy survive in the age of global social justice?

Yesterday Charles III was heckled in Parliament House in Canberra. He might consider it a happy milestone: he has only been on the throne two years. Lidia Thorpe, an Indigenous independent senator, shouted: “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 a treaty. You are a genocidalist. This is not your land. You are not my king. Fuck the colony”.
