Over on the Nine network, Jacqui Lambie gave her opinion on the major party campaign launches:

I mean, these two leaders, both Anthony Albanese and Peter Dutton this morning become as loose as a bloody goose. I mean, you’ve got to be kidding me. How about you turn the first lot of soil on the first 50 or 60,000 homes that you’ve promised and do not talk to me about those TAFEs. The reasons we have RTOs in the unions running them is because the TAFES have been depleted year in, year out.

Now, I’m not having a go at the unions for picking up, um, for picking that up because nobody else bloody did.

But quite frankly, I mean, I’ve got a TAFE down here that’s got Cold War equipment in it from the 1950s, full of asbestos. And you’re training them? Oh, please.

Here’s a good idea. How about you go to the root cause of the problem and you go to our TAFEs? I’ve got Australian TAFE who can’t even tell me what every one of their TAFE is doing, what equipment that they need. I mean, it’s an absolute mess.

So, seriously, looses as gooses today. And it’s going to get worse the next 20 days.
