Barnaby Joyce’s new partner Vikki Campion reportedly ‘looked at him like he had lost his mind’ as he filmed and confronted a photographer outside a church on Sunday.
Photographer Guy Finlay, from Sydney, was standing outside a church in Armidale when he claims the former Deputy Prime Minister ‘sized him up’.
‘He balled his fists and stormed towards me, he got two metres away from me when I started to think ”hang on he is going to hit me”,’the photographer claims.

‘So I went back towards the church.
‘Vikki was on the other side of the road with Sebastian in a pram looking at Barnaby like he had lost his mind,’ Mr Finlay claims.
‘She was a journalist. She knows how this works and she should tell Barnaby that,’ he said.
Mr Finlay is a veteran news man of 45 years.
Mr Joyce took out his phone to record the photographer and can be heard asking for his name and the name of his employer.
Mr Joyce’s wife and four daughters have remained silent about the breakdown of their family, his affair, and the birth of his first son
‘Barnaby can’t do this every time a photographer or news crew see him in the street,’ Mr Finlay said.
‘He needs to control himself – if you were actually punch someone that is breaking the law and you get in trouble for doing that.’
Mr Finlay was sent up to Armidale to photograph Mr Joyce and Ms Campion following their appearance on Sunday Night.
‘It isn’t a personal thing, it isn’t a stalker thing. I am doing my job, I am trying to support my family,’ Mr Finlay said.
‘It is a supply and demand thing – if he left politics and got a job as a plumber he wouldn’t have this to deal with.’
