Jacqui Lambie Calls Scott Morrison A “Bully” After Two Other Senators Called Him Out
"This bloke has no idea how to communicate with women and the only way he can get his own way is intimidating and bullying them."
Independent Senator Jacqui Lambie is the latest politician to call out Prime Minister Scott Morrison’s character in a brutal assessment on Thursday.
Following a now-viral speech from Liberal Senator Concetta Fierravanti-Wells after the budget speech on Tuesday night, Jacqui Lambie has joined One Nation’s Pauline Hanson in making subsequent allegations.
“Scott Morrison is a bully — he is an intimidating bully — there is no doubt about that,” Lambie told Sky News on Thursday. “If you’re not sitting there like he’s a messiah, you’re in the outer. it’s that simple.”
According to Lambie, Morrison was an “intimidating bully” during negotiations regarding the infamous Medevac deal that made headlines last week. “This bloke has no idea how to communicate with women and the only way he can get his own way is intimidating and bullying them — that is how Scott Morrison works,” Senator Lambie said.
Lambie’s comments come after Hanson used her time in the Senate on Wednesday to “back up completely” the claims made by Fierraventi-Wells the night before.
“He is a bully. I have experienced it myself,” Hanson said in the Senate on Wednesday. “He is a man that says he will do it my way or no way.”
Fierravanti-Wells will leave politics at the next Federal election.
“He is adept at running with the foxes and hunting with the hounds, lacking the moral compass and having no conscience,” she said. “His actions conflict with his portrayal as a man of faith. He has used his so-called faith as a marketing advantage.”
Scott Morrison is still yet to call the election — which must take place before May 21.
