Liberal Jacinta Nampijinpa Price backed out as the headlining speaker at an upcoming anti-immigration protest spanning several of Australia's cities that was inspired by rightwing protests in the UK in September.

The Northern Territory senator announced shortly before midday on Friday she was honoured" to join the rally against mass immigration" and net zero. Less than 24 hours later, and after Guardian Australia contacted Nampijinpa Price's office with questions, her announcement was wiped from social media.
