Lambie, Xenophon to visit SA shipbuilder
AAP
Jacqui Lambie will lend her support to shipbuilder ASC during a tour of Adelaide on Friday.
The outspoken senator has been invited to see firsthand the South Australian shipbuilder's operations by SA independent senator Nick Xenophon.
Senator Lambie has been a vocal supporter of the ASC, once suggesting former defence minister David Johnston was "dangerously stupid" over comments he would not trust it to build a canoe.

The senators will also visit a social welfare provider, greet independent MLC John Darley and tour a car components maker's operations.
Senator Xenophon is using the visit to convince Senator Lambie to block a government bill that winds back assistance to the motor industry.
