MRobertsQLD Clive Palmer needs to pay His workers in the failed nickel Refinery instead of wasting money on an election campaign that will fail

Clive Palmer.s ad says he voted to save the School Kids Bonus.. Funny we no longer have it.

Credlin is a Liberal what else would she say. MORE LIES

People have short memories if they are contemplating voting this way

Didn't Credlin admit that her and Abbott's campaign on Labor's carbon price was a bunch of lies, but it worked? Pretty big 'gulf' right there that led to 6 years of incompetent Liberal government.

What exactly is 55 thousand million dollars? I think that lady has borrowed Joe Hockeys eleventy calculator.

Bit like the Liberal Party

what he says makes real sense . the others should do the same.

The gavel corrupts

MRobertsQLD More like there’s a buffet between what Clive Palmer says & the truth

Still rather vote for him than the Labor greens

Watching Clives add about Chinese influence over our infrastructure. It was Clives company that sold the rights to the Cape Preston project to the Chinese. You can tell when Clive's lying because his lips move.

She’s got that right.

AStrongerOZ Clive is a loser, ripped off the aussie taxpayer who had to pay all the entitlements he skipped on, saying they have all been paid, yes they have but not by him, go back to your dinosaur models and your toy titanic, you are a joke, glad to see him spend millions to get nowhere

I can’t believe it, I agree with her.

He’s quite wet

Credlin and Palmer are peas in a pod.

If the media gave him some coverage then maybe the people could hear what he stands for. Not saying you have to vote for him, but if you at least want to hear him out so he gets a fair crack. You will need to follow him on YouTube. MSM censor CliveFPalmer

I had to make sure that this was not a parody account. I'm sure she's talking about the current government & surely her former Boss was the ring leader of 'Doesn't Standing For Anything '

At least Clive Palmer doesn't hide his 'make Clive Palmer great again' agenda. Unlike Dutton and slomo

Why won’t Peta answer the question to how much money she gave the Clinton’s while she was in government?

The problem is not what the United Australia Party says, the problem is that Clive Palmer says it! Get rid of Clive, and this party could actually get traction.

I think there’s a Gulf between what the LNP historically stood for, and the leftist party they have become...Looking at the PUP and Cussing isn’t going to change that!!

So why on earth are candidates signing up to run for him? Money?

Another right winger stiffing the public he is as bad as his mates in the Liberal Party

Smartest thing you’ve said in a long time PC

He is a grifter

Not 'again?' What a dope. 'Make Australia Great' implies that it was never great. It's one of the greatest nations in the history of Earth.

Just like Scott Morrison

Peta’s nervous

You mean like the promises made in Abbott's election campaign and then his 2014 first budget completely full of cuts proving he lied

So why even comment on him
