Kitchen Cabinet on ABC TV – Annabel travels to Melbourne to sit down with Senator Lidia Thorpe – elected as a Green, and now sitting as an Independent.
Over her short career in the Senate, Thorpe has become one of the Parliament’s most recognisable faces. A teenage Mum, Thorpe escaped an abusive relationship and grew up through Indigenous politics to enter first the Victorian Parliament and then the Senate. Noted for her fiery ways, Thorpe also has a ribald sense of humour.
