Unvaxxed billionaire Clive Palmer promises most expensive election campaign ever

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.
