I couldn’t do that, it’s an abuse of power and a tantrum.

Can someone please flush this nutty turd

And should he fail?

Farken hell, this bloke must have some serious money to be able to keep going back to court!

Uhm...🙄, I guess he doesn’t have to worry about the little things like the rest of us, you know, paying bills, feeding the family.....

What an attention seeker! Bugger off Clive, nobody with an ounce of common sense is supporting you.

Well when you think contemptible, you do think Clive Palmer.

can we hold Clive in ‘contempt’ of a healthy salad?

AFP do your job and lock this mongrel up will ya or are you being paid off as well😡nothing would surprise me with what’s been going on in the past 🤬🤬

Who cares

Better hurry before you have a heartattack Palmer

Shut up Clive.

Fruit cake

Rich rule - He has a major issues with those that say no to him, but with unlimited monetary and legal rescources it's FU to governments.

I suppose the spoilt child is now throwing a tantrum cause there not playing fair

Nothing could outweigh the contempt WA has for Clive Palmer, not even his gut.

Perhaps a massive counter suit would see the end of this cane toad.

Wish I could sue him for contempt of Australia

Does this disgusting slug ever go away🤪

He can have all of MY contempt. Actually has most of it already

Hmmmm ABC News. I wonder with stranded assetts if Clive P now impecunious Would explain a few things.....

Bahahaha!

...and should he succeed, West Australians will know exactly how inept their Labor government has been at managing state finances and resources and how poorly their legal advice has been.

Someone just needs to jump out of a bush at him, then he’ll have a heart attack or something

Clive should be sent to Christmas Island

The government should remove his wealth. No one would hear or care about the squeals....

Now this nuffnuff has gone too far; mr six feet high and twelve feet wide needs to stop his rank stupidity.

Oh now come on....

Can he even do that? As my dear old Mum used to say (in a different context), the High Court is big enough and ugly enough to decide for itself if it’s been held in contempt.

CliveFPalmer - just go AWAY! Your vexatious litigation, sense of entitlement, and boorish greedy unpleasantness make you an altogether nasty pest. No redeeming features at all. Just BUGGER OFF! And I’m not even in WA…!

Wasting valuable tax dollars that could be used to help those that need it. So selfish CliveFPalmer

Go Home Jabba!

Good job Clive. Hope you get a massive payout.

Fat Can't

Please tell me we have a legal system that protects from this kind of crap from those with more money than sense...or morals...or decency...or class...or brains..or friends...or actual influence...or judgement...

“Siri, who is the most high profile person to be declared a vexatious litigant?”

Temper tantrum clive at it again

ffs.. can he not be declared a vexatious litigant and have done with it?

Just proves a point that every $billionaire is a policy failure.

Too many dollars, not enough sense.

You lost, Clive!! Just accept it and go away.
