As both houses of Federal Parliament melt down over comments made by two silver-haired geriatrics with zero influence on anything, The Minister For Defence has successfully managed to avoid questions relating to his suspiciously plump lips.
Returning to Canberra for the Parliamentary sitting week, Christopher Pyne MP appears to have undergone a bit of non-surgical augmentation on his lips.
“Absolutely not. I detest those suggestions that I would need collagen to make my lips pop” said Pyne, after being question about the new lips during Parliament House door stop interview.
“How dare you! I’ve never had any work done… Well actually that’s not true”
“But it was only on my nose after I broke it when Barnaby forced me to play touch football against the press gallery. But that wasn’t cosmetic. That was medical. My nose was broke and I fixed it.”
“I’m a fixer”
These allegations comes just months after Pyne made headlines for debuting corn-rows during Question Time in Parliament House.
The 50-year-old father-of-four refused to explain why he was donning the new afro-centric hairstyle, but many commentators drew links between his recent pilgrimage to the Adelaide Fringe Festival.
Despite being commonly linked to conservative policy making, the quirky nature of the 6-year-veteran of the Coalition cabinet has seen him elevated to cult status amongst the creatives elite in South Australia, who champion him as their one true voice in the swamp.
“No. I haven’t been to Bali!” said Pyne at the time.
“I’m just trying something new. Leave me be”
