What Jacqui Lambie Would Use In Loo Of Toilet Paper
As well as nicking boxes of tissues she comes across, Jacqui Lambie admits she has an environmentally friendly Plan B in place should she run out of toilet paper.
The Tasmanian Senator has always been a straight-shooter, rarely muzzled by political correctness. And her response to #toiletpapergate -- as a result of COVID-19 panic -- was no different.
Speaking to the Today show on Thursday, Lambie was asked if she had stocked up on toilet paper.
"I noticed you guys have got a box of Kleenex, I'll be taking that with me," she
replied.
But the Senator is not too phased if she runs out tissues either.
"I did come up with a Plan B, I thought because when we first got up here back in Parliament we had no toilet paper. And the thing I had sitting on my desk there was The Australian newspaper," she said.
"I get that daily and I thought the worst thing I can do is cut strips off that as a Plan B and use that if necessary," Lambie said.
It seems newspapers are becoming an attractive option for use as toilet paper replacements.
On Thursday, NT News printed a special eight page lift out of 'toilet newspaper', in response to the recent toilet paper frenzied buying.
With barely a square to spare, on Wednesday Australian retailers put strict limits on purchases of toilet paper after shoppers stripped shelves in a rush of panic.
