Jacqui Lambie has stepped out with a fresh look, while opening up about her difficulties searching for a life partner.
Speaking on KIIS 1065 this week, the former Tasmanian Senator said she was probably the only politician who was not sexually active – after news broke of Barnaby Joyce’s affair with his staffer.
‘I’m so annoyed, I must be the only one that can’t get any bonking going on, fair go,’ she said.

The former politician, who was forced to resign in November amid the dual citizenship saga, told the radio hosts she was only having a laugh.
She clarified, saying inter-office relationships were ‘a big no no for me’.
‘I’m very big on that, you don’t mix business and pleasure, you’ve only got a small amount of staff,’ she said.
Speaking earlier in the week, Ms Lambie said she completely agreed with Mr Joyce’s decision to step down after his relationship with pregnant staffer Vikki Campion went public.
She said she never felt tempted to have an inter-office relationship anyway, because Parliament was devoid of any ‘real men’.
‘I want a real man, a tradie with calluses on his hands, a big boy,’ she said.

‘Missing a tooth’s probably not going to help my situation.’
In response to her man troubles, Sandilands asked Ms Lambie if she would consider dating women.
After some hesitation, Ms Lambie replied saying she had ‘never thought of jumping the fence’.

‘You can kick me down as far as you like, but I’ll be popping back up again.
‘You don’t think I’ll just leave and let those little buggers up there run amok, no way. I’m coming back.’
