Senator Jacqui Lambie has produced some memorable moments during her time in parliament, passionately advocating for the issues close to her.
Lambie took the opportunity to unleash on Pauline Hanson’s bid to legislate her vaccine mandate “discrimination” bill, accusing the One Nation politician of exploiting fear for fundraising purposes
‘It’s called being – you wouldn’t believe it – a goddamn bloody adult’ In a powerful moment in the Senate on Monday, Lambie passionately spoke against the idea being pushed by Pauline Hanson that unvaccinated people are discriminated against. Unleashing on Hanson’s private members bill, Lambie said people are free to make their own choices, but these choices have consequences. She noted these consequences don’t amount to discrimination.
“Having the freedom to choose isn’t the same as having the freedom to avoid the consequences of that choice. You have freedom to make a choice, but if you make a choice, those choices have consequences,” she said.
“You don’t get to decide how the rest of Australia responds to that choice.
“Being held accountable for your own actions isn’t called discrimination, it’s called being, you wouldn’t believe it – a goddamn bloody adult.”
Lambie noted there are many other situations where workers are required to meet certain requirements, for example, you need a working with children check to be employed in a job around children.
“You put others before ourselves. You can decide not to choose those checks, no one is forcing you, but if you don’t do them, you can’t work where you want to work, it is as simple as that. That is the way it is.”
Lambie said One Nation senators Pauline Hanson and Malcolm Roberts were using the bill to exploit people’s fear to use it as a “fundraising exercise”.
“The problem is politicians like Senator Hanson and Senator Roberts and they are using fear to make money and that’s what this is about from One Nation.”
