Clive Palmer's companies have donated more than $80,000 to his United Australia Party, two months out from Queensland's state election.
Clive Palmer's companies have pumped funds into his United Australia Party as he tries to topple Queensland's Labor government at the upcoming state election.
Mr Palmer's companies - Minerology, Palmer Gold Coast and Waratah Coal - have donated more than $80,000 to the UAP in the past two-and-a-half weeks, according to the Electoral Commission of Queensland. He's also trying to build a broader anti-Labor coalition but the opposition Liberal National Party has ruled out working with minor parties.
Mr Palmer's offensive against Ms Palaszczuk comes as her own former cabinet minister Jo-Ann Miller slammed her government for"demonising" coal mining.
