One Nation leader Pauline Hanson has reacted to a tweet about the Queen's death from Greens senator Mehreen Faruqi.
This story contains strong language.
On Friday, the Greens senator said she offered her condolences to the late Queen, but couldn't "mourn the leader of a racist empire built on stolen lives, land and wealth of colonised peoples"."We are reminded of the urgency of Treaty with First Nations, justice & reparations for British colonies & becoming a republic," Senator Faruqi wrote on Twitter."When you immigrated to Australia you took every advantage of this country.
Greens leader Adam Bandt has also faced both criticism - and support - over a condolence tweet to the Queen, which also called for a referendum.
