Unvaxxed billionaire Clive Palmer promises most expensive election campaign ever | Zach Hope

Unvaccinated mining billionaire Clive Palmer says the United Australia Party will run the most expensive political campaign in Australian history at the next federal election, exceeding the $80 million it spent damaging Labor’s chances at government in 2019.

Entering a Hyatt Regency’s meeting room on Wednesday wearing a mask and flanked by two other UAP Senate candidates , the 67-year-old claimed he did not need to be vaccinated because he was healthier and lighter than during his previous foray into politics, from 2013 to 2016. He has previously described the charges as “simply made up” and is expected to continue fighting them.

He dismissed the 2019 election, in which the UAP did not win a single seat and received only 3.4 per cent of first-preference votes.

Stop Clive's dangerous antivaccer stance. Kick him out.

Everytime I see this guy on YouTube ads I want to kill my self

Wish this selfish oaf would just disappear. It’s tedious.

He's still at it! He has been responsible for selling or at least trying to sell mining interests in WA to the Chinese. Think back people, he tried to sue the WA government 2020-21 for not allowing him to start up another mine and he'd planned to sell it off. We are not for SALE!

With a bit of luck he will catch the virus. If he ends up in hospital, he can also pay to stay there.

Disgusting. He’s not using his money to pay for this - he’s using ours! And all the utter BS about not choosing LNP. So they won’t be the No.2 preference on the ballot? This LNP stalking horse is the most egregious, costly con job before an election in Australia, ever. auspol

LMAO.....

Captain-Snooze-In-Parliament ClivePalmer robbed billshortenmp of a win CliveFPalmer is not a nice man no matter how jolly he portrays himself. His HECS stance was purely to attract young people to his brand of politics PutPalmerLast UAP AusPol2022 CraigKelly auspol

Good he. Will be poorer when Albo Wins

Imagine being this rich and yet still a manchild desperate for attention.

So he's not passed over yet ? Ah well. There is always hope.

Vote Clive Palmer

Let him waste all of his money. Im sure most of australia is not listening

MSMWatchdog2013 A fool and his money are soon parted!

If only he had qualified for the Australian Open

Is this same guy who secured some medicine from overseas in 2020 for covid

I doubt he’s unvaccinated

Nice work falling for this publicity stunt hook, line and sinker

🙌🏼

Billionaires are a policy failure.

Piss off to Majorca with Donald

Tell him he's dreaming.

Could the federal LNP party go the same way as the liberals in WA?

How could it get any worse

Gee I’d be a bit careful if I was Clive Palmer. This virus loves obesity

What is this show pony trying to buy now from LNP? Go away Palmer and play with your pinky and his five friends. AustraliaHasFallen

He’s 100% vaxxed come on.

Sign of a healthy democracy

But will he make it past Domicron and scovid

The pure blood

So many co-morbidities

Oh god he's the only guy who can make libs look like a good alternative

COVID, you know what to do.

Why does his medical status matter. Is it just another media pile on from the worst media sources in this country?

Harvesting votes to return as preferences…

Haha bro.. if ever anyone was a candidate for the vaccine it’s old Clive

Do you really believe he is not vaccinated? I don't, same for Craig Kelly

StakPhat Disgusting misuse of money, why not do something meaningful & selfless with that amount of money. So many better causes…..

Lost the plot buddy. All the good he could be currently doing with his investment

Still can't decide who would be worse. Scotty or Clive?

The overwhelming majority of Australians will reject this guy and his party. People are now aware of what he is.

money talks bullshit walks …spend as much as you like … still means nothing if you dont have the respect of the voters …prove your not a lying C like all the others and you might be suprised what happens

This is a man who took credit for Morrison's win in 2019. Publicly boasted that it was him who got Morrison back in. If anyone thinks he's not working for the Libs, they're fooling themselves. Same with One Nation. Just another far right wing of the Liberal Party.

Just in case you might be reading this Clive. Can you and Craig Kelly please stop cold calling me! Fuck wits. Thank you.

C u next Tuesday

Caps on election spending for all! Ban signage and pamphlets. Limit ads to 30 seconds. Candidates must hold Q&A session in electorate hall. Door knocking allowed. Failure to comply fines and bans

Maybe the electorate should bankrupt him - remember no reimbursement from public purse if you don’t get minimum % votes!!!!

You guys going use the advertising $ he pays you to run a 24/7 fact check on his lies?

There is very little chance this walking bag of hummus is unvaccinated. The guy couldn’t lie straight in bed.

Ban him from social media for false information on vaccination and from travelling for not being vaccinated. Better still send him to Serbia

Oh he hasn’t started yet? I see his stupid ridiculous signs everywhere and ads in most papers (those with some integrity don’t have his ads)

From the article: The UAP, led by Liberal defector Craig Kelly, is positioning itself as the party of “freedom, freedom, freedom” against pandemic mandates, the “political class”, and the political influence of big busines The Party is physically underwritten by big business.

Great. Show the jabbed hypochondriacs that life goes on if you're not stupid and get your science degree watching television

A-well-a everybody's heard about the turd T-t-t Turd, t-turds the word A-well, a turd, turd, turd. Turd is the word

Hmmm is this implying votes are buyable?

Yeah sure, Clive's unvaxxed 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

He’s vaccinated.

Can't do much worse than the libs and labor....its like choosing the least crappy party from the bunch...

How much did u receive from this dangerous prick ?

Yawn. And he still owes nickel miners their money

Has he paid his workers yet?

MSMWatchdog2013 Expensive in lives lost thanks to his misinformation? Yes I guess it's very expensive. Unforgivably so.

3wombats FFS. We need 1 - to legislate against lies in political advertising. 2 - a cap on political advertising $$ (or else we'll end up like the US where all too often the most $$ wins) and 3 - a very toothy ICAC. For a start.

If he’s really unvaxxed I’m guessing it won’t be campaigning in person. Or maybe he will…

And this👇nefarious farker will promote him all the way. Liberals & Nationals will take his preferences. A vote for Fatboi chicken palmer is a vote for ScottyDoesNothing

Good luck!

Run us through the list of promises Clive Palmer has kept so far.

Can we fact check the unvaxxed bit?

Did Clive Palmer pay his workers

What, free RATests?

Pay your workers Palmer

despite who he is, for you to call him unvaxxed , I pity you .

A vote for Palmer is a vote for Morrison. Be careful Australia what kind of tax credit deals is this person receiving to elect Morrison again?

All that money to prop up ScottytheFailure

Investing in his ego and not assisting others less fortunate.

👍

Fun..

Written in newspaper that has already received massive advertising income from Palmer and will gleefully accept buck loads more. 💰 💰 “Bring it on” do we hear.

Wow, unvaxed! He’s a big sitting duck for Covid at the moment. The classic picture of a Covid ☠️

Palmer , Hanson are a vote for more of the Morrison Government LNPfail LNPfail CallTheElectionDickhead

Of course he does. And how much free publicity will you give him?

Smh nine and Murdoch will be rubbing there hands with Glee. Why don't you just take a moral stand and just ban his lies and sensationalism.

Why hasn't he paid his workers? It's just a ploy to shift votes back to the liberals

We have people unable to work because of this pandemic and this idiot gets to spend money on a vanity project. Our world is so messed up.

Good I can't stand that guy! Can't he just slither back into the woodwork?!
