I don't know that anyone who places value on honesty & decency could possibly support any of the present crop of bloodsucking parasites, and certainly NOT the Mad Monk. Remember his part in the 'lets nobble Pauline Hanson' affair ?? Furthermore, anyone who has trained in law is immediately suspect. Those turkeys spend far too much time learning how to turn words inside out for my liking, no doubt why they integrate so well into the contemporary political circus & even more reason why they should be banned from politics in perpetuity. Democracy, accountability and public confidence in the political system can only be achieved when common language is mandatory. The similarity between the RAbbott & Slippery Pete is noteworthy, both failed lawyers, both failed priests, and both extremely nasty devious untrustworthy individuals capable of absolutely anything in pursuit of self-glorification. We had another failed priest as mayor of Brisbane a while back, also a particularly distasteful specimen of inhumanity despite claiming an interest in 'human rights' (predominantly his own)

Palmer really is too flaky - what happened to the 'two sitting Federal members' who he claimed were going to join his party last week? And why does he persist in using the title 'Professor' when he was A) only ever an Adjunct Professor B) is no longer an Adjunct Professor and C)should only use the title in relation to university matters. I predict his party will disappear after the election, if it manages to survive that long.

If you want to describe any political party as 'flaky', maybe you should consider the Newman / Seeney / Nicholls circus in Queensland. Its gotta take the all-time record for deceptive & misleading conduct/ conveniently arranged financial inquiries / other highly questionable events / members departing under a cloud / CMC interests / jobs for the boys & girls / blatant nepotism and probably a lot more we have yet to discover. The previous Blighter gubmunt was certainly 'interesting' but the UNholy trinity have taken funny business to a whole new level.

Clive Palmer certainly doesn't have exclusive rights to flakiness, but he'd have to win 'most consistently flaky of the week'. This morning he says he will run for election even if his party isn't registered (just how does he plan to get his members onto a ballot paper if they don't belong to a registered party) and that he is prepared to 'go to jail' over the issue. More likely to be laughed out of court. Needs to learn to engage brain before voicebox. Hope he improves and is in it for the long haul: he is excellent entertainment. The rest of them are too depressing for words.

If Clive Palmer can bring fight to the laborals and try to broke the duopoly in this country. Then maybe get my vote? Just like Pauline Hansen tried to do and failed.
