PUP at war with Abbott?

I'm really starting to like this Palmer United Party's Jacqui Lambie. After having a go at Abbott the other day saying how much she didn't like him for parading his daughters in front of the media during the election, she's now told him to toughen up and accept a bucket of cement:

The outspoken Palmer United Party senator hasn't shied away from airing her dislike of Mr Abbott, who she's called a "bare-faced, uncaring liar" and a man willing to put his career ahead of his family's safety.

The political rookie isn't fazed by the stir she's caused, and has offered Mr Abbott some free advice about how to handle critics.

"If you're not used to attacks by now then you probably shouldn't be in that position," she said.

"You've got one of two choices. You can run and hide or you can say to yourself `here's a bucket of cement - toughen up'."

 She also rejected suggestions she'd crossed the line by dragging families into the political argy bargy, rehashing her belief that Mr Abbott put his daughters at risk during the election campaign.

The former military police officer said there was a fine line between enlisting your family's support and "parading" them for political gain. more

Excellent! This is what Canberra bloody needs. Someone who's as pissed off with Abbott as the rest of us are! Good luck to her. Abbott's got his work cut out getting this one to vote for his policies :)

Utterly hilariously, Pyne has feigned moral indignation at the family thing. Oh the precious little twerp has such a short memory:   

Senior government minister Christopher Pyne said he hoped Senator Lambie reflected on the respect and mutual support that's expected of politicians when she entered the Senate on Monday. 

"I think Jacqui Lambie and all of us in Canberra should treat each other with the respect that all colleagues deserve," he told the Nine Network. more
