Original Note:
Lidia Thorpe was not “tackled” by police. She attempted to intrude on a speech and refused to leave. She was eventually moved away using soft, open hand control techniques. She subsequently remained on the ground to obstruct her removal. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/video/2023/mar/23/lidia-thorpe-knocked-to-the-ground-stopped-by-police-at-kellie-jay-keen-event-in-canberra-video
