Added information[edit]

Fleshed out the bio, cited sources for all points. In particular added information on military service, injury which resulted in end of service and five year battle the DVA. Also added past with the Liberal party, views on conscription, gay marriage and religion. Also added family details as I feel that this is relevant to stated political positions.

lambie still a sentor[edit]

i have just brought the article back to an older version as some editors, starting late last night, amended the article so that it read that lambie is no longer a sentor, this is not the case, she is due to announce her resignation around 12.30pm today, until then she is still a senator, see smh article here, and news.com here, my edit can be reverted after.

i am watching lambie resigning live from the senate, so the article can now be updated to reflect this:}Coolabahapple (talk) 01:36, 14 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Pronunciation[edit]

I came to this article for the sole purpose of finding out whether her surname is /ˈlæm.bi/ or /ˈlæ.mi/. No such luck! Correctrix (talk) 03:09, 18 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not good with those phonetic things, but if you're asking whether the "b" is silent or not, it's not. It's definitely pronounced, i.e. lam-bee. HiLo48 (talk) 04:05, 18 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
