In a footage of Ms Thorpe, as police worked to remove her from the road, she can be heard yelling, “f**k the police” - authorities confirmed she will not be charged for the disruption. “How hard is it to turn around and say she’s ridiculous and anyone who abuses our police, I absolutely will not support them,” Mr Murray said. “And she’s not even a senator from New South Wales - why was she here at all? “Instead, this word salad.”
