Queensland's Court of Appeal says Clive Palmer's firm Mineralogy must pay $102 million to liquidators over the failure of Queensland Nickel in January 2016.

Clive Palmer's company Mineralogy has been ordered to pay $102 million over the collapse of Queensland Nickel by the state's Court of Appeal.Last year, Mr Palmer's lawyers had successfully argued in the Supreme Court that $102,844,346 sought by the liquidators represented loans from joint venture companies and therefore did not belong to QNI.

But today, the Court of Appeal upheld QNI's liquidators' case, arguing that these transactions had in fact been loans from QNI to Mineralogy and not the joint venture companies. The judgment stated that some of the proof that the loans were between the two companies could be found in emails about certain transactions including a "loan balance report" that included a "response from Mr Palmer's email alias account saying: "No limit, clive".

Mineralogy and the liquidators have until July 16 to make submissions about interest due on the amount and the costs of the proceedings.

Supreme Court rules in favour of students' free speech outside educational campuses | Sky News AustraliaA high schooler’s expletive-laden rant which saw her suspended from cheerleading has been protected by the Supreme Court in a case concerning one of America’s “most sacred Constitutional rights”, according to Sky News contributor Michael Ware.\n\n“She was off campus when she did it but the school still suspended her for a year from the cheerleading team so she took them to court,” he told Sky News. \n\nThe high schooler, then 14, did not make the cut for the team and went on a Snapchat tirade against her school, which circulated and saw her punished by her principal which the Supreme Court ruled was not something schools could regulate.\n\n“When it comes to students, schools are able to regulate some of their speech but the court found, certainly when they’re off campus and they’re just venting, even if it’s in terrible language as teenagers are wont to do, then that cannot be regulated by the school.”\n\n“The girl, who was then 14 and is now in college, f-bombed all the way up to the Supreme Court and the Supreme Court this morning issued its judgement in her favour.” Critical race theory does it again.
