Independent Senator Jacqui Lambie has in one breath agreed it's hard to trust politicians in the current environment, while in the next telling the Australian public to trust her.Independent analysis revealed public trust in the Australian government has dropped eight points in eight years
The show began with a question from a teenage member of the audience about trust in politicians and was followed a primary school teacher asking how they can get children to trust elected officials when the teachers themselves don't."Trust comes with leadership and in this country we're lacking leadership," Senator Lambie said."I don't trust a lot of them [politicians] either, so that's not helping.
"We have got a report that they won't release. If there is nothing wrong with that report and there is nothing to see here, then release it."But Senator Lambie then came under fire herself from an audience member for voting with the Government against the Medevac bill, which could allow refugees potentially lifesaving treatment.
JacquiLambie bit like a used car salesman, only driven by an old lady to church on Sunday’s. Might have believed it a few months ago JacquiLambie
We the people have had enough of the blatant dishonesty amongst our politicians. As a first step - I call on the expansion of the Auditor General's office to scrutinise all goverment expediture. ScottyfromMarketing vanOnselenP hughriminton Lisa_Wilkinson SenatorWong
Fuckin “different” all right!!!
Yep I don't always agree but do trust her.
Don’t trust any politician
QandA Total BS! She threw veterans under the bus on CommSuperCorp invalidity benefits legislation. Voted with Brandis LNPfail at last minute for a deal she never disclosed. Is also cozying up to Forest on In due welfare card. Medivac is a joke of story.
WHY
No comment.
QandA I worried about Jacqui but when you watched her speaking from her heart and the other two women making excuses along the party line, it showed how much better our politics would be. It works in other nations. They didn't know about lobbyists' quid pro quo? Pull the other leg.
I'll support your bill, but only if you give me.... Yep very trust worthy.
Once I believed that Lambie was a straight shooter. But now she has proved herself no different than any of the government rabble, looking after her own interests. Backing for the cashless welfare card shows her lack of compassion for the vulnerable and underprivileged in society
QandA I found her response difficult to swallow! National Security and Medivac - I can't see the connection!
QandA The 'national security issue' line was soured a long time ago, by the likes of Dutton, Morrison and co.. i'm not sure how she expects us to trust her, given that.
Oh yea
QandA You ain't different Jackie
QandA Oh dear. Hope she wasn't rubbing her earlobe when she said that!
Do not use 'national security' to excuse or justify your decisions, we are not that easily frightened or gullible!
QandA How exactly are you different Jacquie?
QandA No reason for her to trust LNP. No reason for us to trust Lambie.
I dunno but I laughed hard while she was asking the audience to trust her.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Jacqui Lambie...Bob Katter in a dress...lots of hysterics and noise, but no substance.
Not only different but seriously dumb.
Trust you hahaha hahaha
This from a politician who believes in transparency but did a secret deal with the LNP over medivac legislation
Crap...she just swallowed a line served up by Dutton
Yeah sure.
Look at moi. Trust moi. No thanks jacqui.
No you are not Lambie. You sold your soul!
You can't trust Q+A
Oh the irony. Lambie hides the truth while discussing lack of trust.
About to take sides and attack the working class, trust her, nope, go and get .. you know the rest. No value to Australia.
Lol
Unfortunately, Ms Lambie has proven herself quite easy to buy. If any politician wants trust they need to earn it by demonstrating integrity.
Yeah sure Jan!!
Nah Jacqui. You are no different from the rest of the political environment in Australia. Basically a pack of useless bloody politicians in Australia!
She is different but with enough underlying racism/nationalism to be sucked into the national security argument on medevac and enough ego to support the cashless welfare card. I thought we needed more independents but not so sure qanda
What a joke she's as 2 faced as the rest of them says one thing does another
Jaquie Lambie? She’s the barrel girl on Sell Out of the Century, right?
She's a sellout
What a joke you have no influence at all anyone voting an independent is wasting a vote.
Nup, she is just another slime ball. How can she say trust me when she voted yes to the indue card...
No your not different, your a sellout, a fake. Out for your own interests, like most politicians. We've lost all respect and faith in our leaders.
She is kind of different. She doesn't talk much like other politicians either.
How did she influence government policy for the better using her seat in Senate?
Ah, Jacqui, we had such hopes. But you're for sale as much as the others. Remember when you were long term unemployed with a back injury........ welfare CARD would have been a godsend wouldn't it. Only useful in certain shops, not close by ones though. Hypocrite.
The sky is going to fall in if she reveals yeah sure
Bullshit.
lol, Good lord, she is full of herself, she is no different than Hanson. For sale to the highest bidder.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Teachers and the way they can preach their own personal views and ideologies to our children in a bloody school, of all places, is the real problem here. Brainwashing wokeness and greens crap has to stop.
Unfortunately not. Votes with government.medivac cashless card all wrong
Just another Lib by another name.
You're not perfect either, Jacqui. You went quiet for the government and honored your self-imposed vow of silence. How many times have you or the current crop of non-government ministers and senators done that? You're not fooling anyone.
I think no.
She got the first part right. I'd still bone her tho.
She showed her hand with Medivac. If you can't even pass a basic humanitarian litmus test like that, what hope is there for humane policy and moral conviction in government.

Absolute rubbish. Jacqui Lambie said she wanted John Setka to resign otherwise she would support the Union busting bill. He resigned however she is still backing the Government legislation. JacquiLambie can’t be trusted!
How 🤷🤦
