Clive Palmer, here for a good time or a long time?

[Patrick Bullet]

Looks like Clive is planning to give it another go. Will the suckers who voted for him the first time be conned a second time? It worked with One Nation!

Private enterprise has proven a bit tough of late for our Clive, much easy to sunk your nose into the Canberra trough again. Buckley's chance though.

I did.

That's the last time I go to a polling booth drunk.

 

[Scotland]

Should never have called it Palmer United Party in the first place. Whole party just comes across as representing the zany ideas of a rich fat man, rather than some generic conservative 'we're not quite the Liberals or One Nation, but somewhere around that mark' party.

I think NXT have a ceiling under their party name too. Will hopefully develop into something over time. 'Moderate party of South Australia' doesn't have a whole lot of wow factor though.

 

[Gough]

This has seriously pissed me off. Clive Palmer showed contempt for Parliament when he was in it and has now bought off a former ON Senator because he wants his name back in lights and that's before we even look at his recent business conduct. Shame on Burston too for being such a political whore. This is not how democracy is meant to work.

This will be the end of Palmer and his hand picked whore, both will be annihilated at the next election

I thought NXT had already rebranded as Centre Alliance. Or was that just federal?

 

[Upgrayedd]

Surely after falling asleep at work and his absolute cluster * attempt first time he wont even get a look in this time?

Thus, Vote the personality cult micro parties, im sure they will give everyone a third option!

He should call it the “Clive Palmer’s Australia” Party to remove any doubt as to the aim

Oh he got you triggered

 

[Bomberboyokay]

Oh he got you triggered

The man is a piece of s**t who ****ed over his employees while squandering the money.

 

[Gough]

The ability to "trigger" people is now the gold standard by which we judge politicians.

 

[Bomberboyokay]

Especially if you're a cripplingly middle class WA Liberal voter.

Scotland, I think he is speaking to you.

 

[Bomberboyokay]

Both of you came to mind.

Such a Wildcard that the dinosaur in that picture is a burnt husk these days.

Anyone need a visual metaphor for what happens when people put their faith in proudly ignorant candidates:

Two years later:

He did want to call it the United Australia Party at the time, but there was already one with a similar name.

He must be missing the parliamentary wafer-thin mints

Rent free.

Life must be fun when you live in a world of identity politics.

 

[bfff]
