Clive Palmer the billionaire Member of Parliament for Fairfax. Clive Palmer the man who predicted before the 2013 federal election that the Palmer United Party (PUP) would win 100 seats in the House of Representatives. Turns out PUP only won one seat in the House of Representatives at the 2013 federal election. Tony Abbott accused Palmer of trying to buy seats.

1) This guy swears on national TV

2) The decisions he plans on making when becoming Prime Minister are irrational (I've seen an interview where he could cut the HECS)

3) He's racist

1. Swearing is unprofessional. Get an interview for a "prestigious" job (e.g. lawyer) and see what happens when you swear at your interview.

2. I don't understand what you're trying to say there. Are you trying to say that what Crisium is saying is wrong, or what Palmer is saying is wrong (i.e. bad)?

3. Never heard Palmer say anything racist (not because he hasn't, but because I don't listen to the guy), but I don't get how someone can be racist AND make sense. You can't put those two together in the same sentence, you can never justify racism. Never.

Who gives a fuck
being a billionaire is much better than being the puppet figurehead of some poverty ass country like Australia anyway

The real question is: Can Clive Palmer become the Undisputed Grand High Emperor Wizard of Palmerland (formerly known as China)?

This is the most ridiculous thread ever

Does Sathius even know what has to occur, for someone to become a prime minister?

For Clive Palmer to become Prime Minister the PUP needs to win at a minimum 76 seats.

YES

So you legally know what's required to become PM

Do you know how difficult it is to attain 76 seats if you're outside of the major two parties?

Clearly not, otherwise you wouldn't have made such an ignorant thread
