Billionaire businessman Clive Palmer says he won't be settling a multi-million dollar claim by the liquidators of Queensland Nickel, which collapsed in early 2016 with the loss of hundreds of jobs.

Billionaire businessman Clive Palmer says he won't be settling a multi-million dollar claim by the liquidators of Queensland Nickel, which collapsed in early 2016 with the loss of hundreds of jobs.

Mr Palmer has already fought hard to have the Townsville refinery claim dismissed and describes it as baseless and a desperate, politically-motivated attack. However, in the trial's first hour Justice Debra Mullins agreed to adjourn proceedings after the warring parties asked for time to talk.

More fool anyone who believed his pre-election BS. It's all about Clive. How's the reclusive nephew going? auspol

Indigenous people get locked up for unpaid fines. Why can he get away with this? Unfair DoubleStandards LockCliveUp

Now if for some reason our current govt steps in to help ole mate Clive out. It will demonstrate the election fraud at the last election.

Lock him up

roberthulands Big fat ars

roberthulands Or going to Jenny Craig !

This cnt looked so much at home in Canberra, among his buddies.

raywilton4 Fighting for whose greater good?

raywilton4 Well a jail term bekons

lynlinking This man would not know what the greater good is all he knows is being a dick.

The only ‘greater good’ that Palmer would know would be Trump.

Aushiker *self claimed billionaire. Does he still owe the govt $7000 for fraudulent travel expenses from when he was a senator, AusFedPolice?

lynlinking Queensland voters get the Clive Palmer finger. Again. auspol

Should not have been allowed to stand at the election.

“Mr Palmer is representing himself during the trial”. To save himself some Lawyer fees? clivepalmercantaffordalawyer clivepalmerneedsagofundme

Instead - I’m going into politics!

Did anyone ever believe he was going to...?

Yet thousands fell for his bs. This is the man who wants to open the Galilee basin. How much more can he steal from his workers, millions, wait and see, bunch of suckers.

We all knew this lying sack of 💩 would do this. Hope that fvcking walking heart attack is struck down soon. I'm going to send him a carton of Tim Tams & a Maccas voucher to speed up the process.

HEB2205 Of course he won’t settle great big toad. He’s been bludging on the Australian taxpayer for years I hope he explodes.

Didn’t Palmer promise to payout the money owed to workers during the election?

Bet he stopped at Maccas on the way home though. Thief

Second perhaps only to Murdoch, is Palmer perhaps the most evil, destructive face of capitalist ideology this country has ever had to endure

mallottk Wow. What a deadshit move.

This wealthy Clive ! Will no doubt be asking his mates he put in power, to pay the bill. At the same time he is working for the greater good for himself !

I thought he was a shareholder not a director. I suppose if funds of the company were paid to him for no reason it would give way to the company mis appropriating funds which a liquidated would follow up on . If the funds went to Mr Palmer for no reason ? Need a refund

What you get for your vote in Queensland

Arrest him now. This man has defrauded his workers of due monies & spent it 9n an election campaign to defeat Labor. Where is the justice.

This man is an absolute pig. Spent so much money to sabotage our elections for his own benefit but fights paying hard working Australians money they are owed. Hiding his witnesses. Wealthy bastard avoiding justice in plain sight.

Really, this is news? Blind freddy and Nostradamus predicted this

This crook needs to do significant jail time
