Billionaire fraudster and thief Clive Palmer is again telling lie after lie in the Queensland election and this time with the help of his wife Anna who is running in the electorate of Currumbin, which also happens to be my electorate, and his held by Laura Gerber who is an LNP member.
Clive Palmer is currently facing criminal charges for funnelling money out of his companies to help run his federal election campaign in 2013. (Click here to read more) Given the situation, you would think that Clive Palmer would keep a low profile instead of openly and blatantly committing election fraud by lying to voters as nothing more than a spoiler campaign against the Labor Party to gain favours with the Liberal National Party.
Once again Clive Palmer is using company money to fund the Queensland election with The Guardian reporting:
Clive Palmer’s mining company has tipped more than $4.5m into his spoiler political party with more than 50 donations to his Queensland election candidates disclosed in the past week.
Queensland voters are being subjected to a barrage of anti-Labor adverts from Palmer’s United Australia party on television, in newspapers and on social media, and in the form of text messages from his mining company Mineralogy.
Since late August, Mineralogy has pumped $4.6m into Clive Palmer’s United Australia Party and its candidates.
The bulk of the donations from Mineralogy are in the form of cash transfers, with smaller amounts declared as in-kind wages from company staff helping the party. (Click here to read more)
If Clive Palmer is using his business’s money to run the political campaign, he obviously wants a business/political return on investment.
Clive’s wife Anna, who is also a qualified lawyer, is in the ad below telling blatant lies about the Labor Party, who are in power in Queensland, bringing in a death tax and death duties.
Given Anna Palmer lies so blatantly and publicly trying to fraudulently get votes from people how truthful was she in the witness stand when she was called to give evidence in the Federal Court last year about her husband’s dodgy financial dealings.
The ABC reported in March 2019:
Clive Palmer’s wife has told the Federal Court in Brisbane that she approved the transfer of about $180 million to a Bulgarian company controlled by her husband, but doesn’t know what happened to it.
Anna Palmer was questioned at a public examination by liquidators investigating the collapse of Mr Palmer’s Queensland Nickel refinery in Yabulu, north of Townsville.
She told the court that in 2018, while she was director of her husband’s flagship company Mineralogy, she approved a transfer of 130 million Swiss francs ($A180 million) to a Bulgarian company called Palmer Investments.
The court heard that under the agreement, Mineralogy had to then pay interest on the money, which wasn’t repayable by the Bulgarian company for 50 years.
Barrister John Peden — acting on behalf of liquidators — questioned how the loan could possibly be of benefit to Mineralogy.
“Wouldn’t it just have been better to stash it under the mattress?” he asked.
“No,” Mrs Palmer replied.
Mrs Palmer said it was an investment that was about “diversifying assets” and rejected a suggestion she was “disposing” of the money.
“Have you asked your husband [what happened to the 130 million Swiss francs?]” Mr Peden asked.
“I don’t remember,” she replied. (Click here to read more)
Anna Palmer doesn’t sound credible at all with the evidence she gave in the witness stand under oath with her selective memory and blatant lies which equates to perjury.
Clive Palmer knows he has no chance of winning any seats in the Queensland parliament so why is he spending $4.5 million? He attacks the Labor Party to help the Liberals who he expects to get favours from for his mining and business interests the same as he did in the 2019 federal election.
Clive has a history of threatening media with defamation as per the below video where he threatened Jordan Shanks who publishes the Friendly Jordies YouTube Channel in September 2019.
The fact that the Party is called Clive Palmer’s United Australia Party says it all. It’s his Party and it is there to benefit him.
I sent Clive and Anna Palmer an email as per below asking if they would like to respond to this article.

Dear Sir/Madam
I will be publishing an article soon titled “Fraudster and crook Clive Palmer and his perjuring wife Anna ramp up the lies for the Queensland election”.
Anna’s perjury relates to the evidence she gave in the federal court last year. Clive being a fraudster and crook relates to many things including, but not limited to, him ripping off workers, his current criminal charges and his lies during the Queensland election.
Would they like to respond so I can add their response in the article? Can you please respond by 10pm tonight so I can publish.
Regards
Shane Dowling
I haven’t had a response at this point but if I do, I will update this article.
Just for the record, I will be voting Independent the same as I have for many years.
