So a bit of background first for our international followers: Clive Palmer is one of Australia's many mining billionaires who like to meddle in our country's politics, and as such he is utterly despised by all of Australia.
Picture for context:
He is most commonly known online by the title "Fatty McFuckhead", (problematic as it may be) because he tried to sue a youtuber for $500,000 for calling him that - and he lost. So the name stuck.
Up until his most recent foray into parliament, the legally certified Fuckhead was best known for his batshit business ventures, such as attempting to build "The Titanic 2" (failed) and trying to build a dinosaur theme park (also failed, but at least nobody got eaten by a T-Rex in this one).
For a very long time Clive played the role of sugar daddy to Australia's largest conservative party, the ironically named Liberal Party, until they had a falling out in 2012 after Clive claimed there was too much money influencing politics (lol), at which point he started his own party, days after saying he totally quit and wasn't fired and he only left because he didn't want to be a distraction.
His initial run at parliament was actually kinda successful, with Palmer's group winning 4 seats, plus a member from the "Motoring Enthusiasts Party" joined them too after accidentally getting elected and not knowing what the fuck to do.
Despite this initial success however, Palmer's party (which ran on basically no platform other than "I'm rich") hit an iceberg (titanic 2 achieved) and seven elected state and federal politicians quit within the first year.
By the time the next federal election rolled around, only one Palmer party candidate was still running for re-election. The most successful of this group - Jaquie Lambie - quit to sit as an independant and is still in parliament today.
Here she is with a painting of herself strangling Clive (she sells signed copies of this)
And here the senator is posting about liking sausage:
Anyway, we're getting to the point: which is the yellow posters. By the 2016 election, just two years after forming, the party was in complete freefall. It won just 0.01% of the vote at their second election, and it was announced shortly after that Clive was quitting politics and the party was being shut down. Australia breathed a sigh of relief.
It was, of course, short lived.
Clive, in desperate need of attention, restarted the party for the 2019 election, fielding candidates in every seat and spending $60 million in advertising in an attempt to win votes.
Every single candidate lost.
It was in this campaign however that Australia really started to fall out of love with Palmer, because most of that $60 million went towards putting up the world's least compelling marketing billboards on almost every single free space in the country.
For a good six months this was basically the only thing you would see in Australia if you went outside:
Clearly Graphic design is his passion. And yes, the genius did just straight up try and copy Trump's homework while changing a few words, hoping nobody would notice.
Very quickly these all got vandalised and it seemed the ad companies didn't care enough to replace them.
We could go on posting examples, there are thousands, but the best is definitely the one Ikea put up shortly after Clive lost the election:
In 2022, Clive's party contested the election AGAIN, this time also opting to send millions on spam text messages to every person in Australia begging for people to vote for him, as well as buying almost every youtube ad for a year, at the cost of $100 million.
He won a whopping one seat.
During this election Clive ran on an anti-lockdown, anti-vax platform with the slogan "freedom, freedom, freedom". That message, however, was slightly undermined when his goons, dressed in 'Freedom!' shirts, made national news for trying to beat up a protester who turned up at a rally dressed as an annoying text message, shouting "pay your workers" at Clive.
As if that wasn't bad enough, at another rally Clive knocked himself unconscious while trying to jump up on stage, and then a few weeks later was rushed to hospital with covid, while his anti-vax ads were still in regular rotation on TV, at which point it was also leaked to the press that Palmer had been alledgedly trying to buy Hitler's car.
Utterly humiliated, the party deregistered again shortly after the election.
Can't wait until he runs again in 2025.
Anyway, on the other "Clive tweeting Miss Kobayashi's Dragon" thing, we have no idea what that means but here's a screencap:

DUTTON, PALMER, WRIGHTSON
The Trumpet of PARASITES
Peter Dutton and his so-called policies are little more than hollow noise, rhetoric without resolve, robotic in delivery and deeply disconnected from the reality everyday Australians face. His team of yes-men and sycophants follow him like programmed drones, pretending to care for the people while parroting ideas that are either recycled, unrealistic, or downright dangerous.
Take his absurd power plant proposal, reviving nuclear energy as if it's the saviour of our nation. It’s laughable. What happens if something goes wrong? Where will the toxic waste go? Who manages the risk when the inevitable happens? This is not a solution, this is a future catastrophe waiting to happen, burdening the next generations with fallout, both literal and political.
Then there’s his personal narrative, dragging his own son into the political conversation as a token of relatability. Please. This is a man with the privilege and wealth to give his family a comfortable life, using them to score points in a game that doesn’t concern the majority struggling to make ends meet.
Let’s not forget his Trump-like behaviour. "Let’s get Australia back on track!" Sound familiar? It’s disturbingly close to “Make America Great Again,” isn’t it? It’s as if the ghost of Trump is whispering in his ear, guiding his speeches. It reeks of mimicry, of playing to the lowest common denominator, of fuelling fear instead of building hope.
The Liberal Party of today is not the Liberal Party of yesterday. We live in a different world, climate crisis, wealth inequality, indigenous justice, housing stress, yet Dutton’s mob act like it’s still 1950. They offer solutions fit for a time long gone, in a world that no longer exists.
And then there’s Clive Palmer and his train-wreck party of political parasites. His ads are as racist as they are ridiculous, seriously, a train with Asian writing used to promote a nationalist agenda? The hypocrisy is off the charts. Suellen Wrightson, another echo chamber of empty promises, blabbers on as if she’s going to deliver the moon, while sounding like the voiceover to a bad conspiracy video. Her recent statements have drawn criticism for being not only misleading but overtly xenophobic.
These parties, the Liberals, Palmer's circus, and the other "trumped-up patriots", are not fighting for Australians. They’re fighting for seats, power, and control. Just like that fish n’ chips shop racist from Queensland Pauline Hanson, and her One Nation rubbish of irony gaslighting xenophobic retoric, many of these reactionary voices are from up north, as if that corner of the map has become a breeding ground for backward politics.
Meanwhile, Albanese… yes, he’s not perfect. He sticks to the script too often and falls into the same old political routine. But at least he’s not pandering to white nationalism or Trump-style demagoguery. That alone is a relief in this climate of loud, divisive nonsense.
Australia must reject fascist-style politics. We are not a white supremacist state, we are a land that has been nurtured by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples for tens of thousands of years. This land was later colonised by the English, and then built by wave after wave of migrants from all over the world, Greek, Italian, Chinese, Vietnamese, Lebanese, Sudanese, Indian, and many more. Together, we shaped this country, not just a few rich men in suits claiming to speak for us.
If we allow these loud, power-hungry, manipulative forces to take over, they’ll strip away the very freedoms they pretend to defend. Bit by bit, freedom will become a distant memory, a faded dream. And what will rise in its place? A nightmare, silent, obedient, and locked down by fear.
We shouldn’t worship political parties or leaders. Choose what works for you and your loved ones, but never bow to these people like they’re monarchs. That era is dead. Hold them accountable. Scream their promises back at them. Make them work for the vote, not take it as entitlement.
Yours Truly

Second update on my Review VII (WA 2025): Stop Pedophiles! Protect kiddies!
Tomorrow is the WA state election. If you are curious about the minor parties contesting the election, I hope the index to my reviews is helpful in demystifying them.
And yes, you’re seeing the title correctly, this is a second update on my original entry about the party whose name has drawn more comments than any other party name this election: Stop Pedophiles! Protect kiddies! (SPPK) My initial review was based on as much information as I could find at the time, and upon picking up a few more scraps I wrote an update earlier this week.
Well, guess what. I have found their website. I thought I couldn’t find it. Nobody I spoke to could find it. Then I realised it had been staring me in the face the whole time: the WA Electoral Commission lists all candidates including contact details, which can be either an email address or a phone number. Some candidates have generic email addresses for their party, and this is true of SPPK: six candidates have their contact as [email protected]. So, I followed that, and whaddaya know, stoppedos.org is indeed their website.
It's not a terribly informative website, mind you: the website exists primarily to direct potential candidates to a contact form, with the party seeking submissions by 6 February. It doesn’t appear to have been updated since the party submitted their slate of candidates to the WAEC. To the extent that the website tells us anything about the party, it sheds little more light than the farcical how-to-vote cards I mocked in my first update—although it does show that they are aware of how to spell “paedophiles” the Australian way, as they shift between spellings.
SPPK seems to be convinced there are networks of paedophiles throughout society, and they would create a policing body to ferret out these paedophiles within “our government agencies, within churches, within schools and in daycares”. Nobody expects the SPPKanish Inquisition! I can’t help suspecting this is the sort of paranoia you develop if you spend all day consuming far-right conspiracist social media nonsense from the US and believe Pizzagate is real.
Beyond this the website just states they are “a conservative movement”, which rather understates things: A. Wilson, the candidate listed second, appears to be a man called Andrew Wilson with a lengthy history of being associated with white supremacists. The rest of this entry is largely based on some tips received from @dividebygaming, which I very much appreciate. This ABC article covers Wilson’s history from the late 2000s to the late 2010s, beginning in NSW with a neo-Nazi group attempting to hijack control of the NSW Humanist Society. Wilson then moved to Perth and ran a controversial and fortunately unsuccessful campaign for the Mosman Park council in 2017. The report also discloses that he worked with Radomar Kobryn-Coletti (11th candidate for SPPK, whom I mentioned in my first update) making far-right memes for Clive Palmer and Fraser Anning, including antisemitic content, and that both men belonged to a fascist group that attempted to take over the NSW Young Nationals.
Most of the SPPK slate are listed only by their first initial and last name, without their full first name. This is highly unusual: nobody else for any other party has done so. It seems to be to provide some degree of anonymity or deniability for candidates, and I think it’s fair to say that until proven otherwise one should be very wary of any SPPK candidate who has not given so much as their first name for the ballot.
In my previous entries, to save space I omitted two details about other SPPK candidates that on reflection are worth noting. Hugh Dolan (SPPK lead candidate and party secretary), before he stood for the DLP at Victoria’s 2022 state election, stood as the lead candidate for the Jacqui Lambie Network in Victoria at the 2016 federal election. Andrew Middleton (3rd candidate for SPPK) ran for the No Mandatory Vaccination Party as their lead candidate in the Mining and Pastoral Region at the 2021 WA state election. I reviewed No Mandatory Vax for the 2022 election and b_auspol covered their WA 2021 tilt.
It's also worth checking the WAEC’s live donation tracker. SPPK have received $64,561 in donations, which an ABC infographic indicates is the seventh most any party or individual has received this financial year behind Labor, Liberal, Greens, Nats, Kate Hulett (Fremantle teal independent), and Australian Christians. Of that total, $54,560 alone has come from Hugh Dolan across five donations between 26 October 2024 and 18 February 2025. The remaining $10,001 comes from two donations (one of $1!) on 4 November 2024 from the Frank McManus Foundation.
Why is this interesting? Well, recall from my original review that SPPK were originally registered in 2024 as the Democratic Labour Party, and that the DLP over east has disowned the SPPK as having “absolutely no association with us”. The Frank McManus Foundation is… uh, an official fundraising body of the DLP (also a separate home page calling it the “DLP Frank McManus Foundation”). It is named for the party’s founder. It seems the Victorian branch was telling porkies when they claimed to have “absolutely no association” with the WA DLP-cum-SPPK.
So, I have two speculative interpretations based on the above content. First, although SPPK seems obscure and hard to locate online, their website contact form soliciting candidates has probably circulated in private or low-visibility far-right settings, which would explain how 3edgy5u far-right meme machines have ended up on their ballot. Second, the DLP has not been honest in disowning the SPPK as unrelated and never related; this suggests that rumours I've heard of strong internal bickering and fractiousness have substance. Did Dolan move to WA, start a branch, and then fall out with members over east? It seems the DLP originally at least tolerated this branch and supported it financially, but events early this year (the name change? the candidates?) have made them keen to present themselves as having nothing to do with the party on the ballot.
To conclude, if you are voting tomorrow and distributing preferences all the way, I strongly encourage you to place SPPK last or very nearly so. I am personally intermingling their candidates with similarly unpleasant indies Peter McLernon and Aussie Trump.

“And they are evil” like they are not wrong but also I think the call is coming from inside the house…
I’m just in the giggles over this. Like everyone else in Australia I have been spammed with Trumpet of Patriots (Clive Palmers party who spends millions of dollars on campaigning to win like no seats) (Clive also wants to build Titanic 2), and this ad gave me the giggles. It was like we can no longer trust One Nation (the racist party) as they are working with the Liberal Party (our centre-right party)�� they are evil.

Happy Birthday Christina 'Licorice' McKechnie, born on October 2nd 1945 in Edinburgh.
This is always a difficult post for, I say Happy Birthday to Licorice, but in my heart I think she is dead, she was last heard from in 1990, and the last sighting of, "Likkie’’ as she became known, was hitchhiking across the Arizona desert.
Christina ‘Licorice’ McKechnie was born in Edinburgh in 1945, there is nothing about her early life online that I can find, her story starts when she was known around the folk clubs of Auld Reekie, reciting poetry, it was around this time she left home-and was set to marry, the late great Scottish folk musician Bert Jansch. The banns had been called, (Banns were a legal requirement and were an intention of marriage, posted for people to see in their parish,) the wedding never took place, Jansch left Scotland for Morocco.
Likkie began a relationship with Robin Williamson who along Robin,Clive Palmer and Mike Heron had form The Incredible String Band, the group split for a time when Williamson and Likkie went travelling but reformed on their return as a duo with Heron. They later played on the same bill as Leonard Cohen and Joni Mitchell, Likkie joined then as vocalist and they recorded the album, The 5000 Spirits or the Layers of the Onion.
The band went on to have success touring but had limited commercial success. They got involved with Scientology in the 60’s and it is said to have contributed to a decline in their music quality, they did however play Woodstock in 69, they were scheduled to play the first day and a fee of $4500 had been agreed, this would have been a huge sum for them back in the 60’s and you would have thought bigger things beckoned. The band didn’t appear on the film of the festival as they refused to play in the rain, their slot was taken by the fabulous Melanie (Safka) who later wrote “Lay Down (Candles in the Rain)” about her day. “String Band” played the next day on a mainly rock day, the world missed out and so did they.
By late 1969, they had established a communal base at Glen Row near Innerleithen, Likkie and Robin split around this time although she remained in the group till 1972. After a failed marriage to musician Brian Lambert she featured on an album with Williamson and his Merry men and an album with Woody Woodmansey’s band U-Boat. Beyond this, it's believed that she may have bounced around, living perhaps in Los Angeles, Arizona, and Sacramento.
The Diversity of Classic Rock website reports that McKechnie's sister last heard from her in 1990, when McKechnie had been recovering from surgery in Sacramento. The site is also one of many that claims McKechnie disappeared in the Arizona desert, but this has never been conclusively proved.
Time to hit the kitchen to grab a few grains of salt because Reddit has also weighed in on her disappearance, with unproven theories ranging from a Scientology connection to parsing the words of former bandmates who wish (emphasis on the present tense) her well.
Redditors also claim that McKechnie's family hired private investigators to find her, though they were unsuccessful. Others counter that she's been traced via a basic internet search to a small city in the States. The confusion is enough to make any casual sleuth hope that McKechnie just grew tired of the spotlight and is now happy in her anonymity.
I’ll leave it up to you to decide whether Likkie is dead, or if she is living way off grid somewhere on the other side of the Atlantic celebrating her 78th birthday.

A small cultural supremacism thing:
I was at a show last night, which was an Australian musical, and they did my absolute favourite thing.
The actors sang in Australian accents. (Here’s a recording of True North for an example)
There’s this accent I call the musical theatre accent. That people expect theatre to be performed and sang in. You hear it in a lot of music as well: it’s a generic, ‘neutral’ (generally mild American) accent.
I hate it. So much. There’s no REASON for it half the time.
So you see actors putting on American accents or British accents for shows set in those countries, but they’ll use neutral accent for shows where it shouldn’t even matter. Why does Wicked need to be sung in an American accent? It’s set in OZ! Why does Les Mis get sung in a vaguely English or Neutral accent? They’re in FRANCE.
But not only are all the actors being held to generic accents, but they’re held to generic accents from a country they don’t even live in. Just because the person who wrote the musical debuted it on either Broadway or the West End.
It’s just…grrrrrrrr. So whenever anyone actually writes music designed for the accent I actually speak, it delights me.
(Also one of the things that mean this show will likely never travel internationally, but the entire premise of the show is ‘a song ridiculing Clive Palmer got confused for a kid’s song, so a protest band now pivots to kids shows a la the Wiggles’ which is asking a bit in terms of what international theatres may want)

CLIVE PALMER Titanic II
CLIVE PALMER Titanic II
Australian billionaire Clive Palmer has been teasing us with building a replica of the Titanic (called the ‘Titanic II’) for years and years. But since then he’s been busy making political television advertisements and politics and more politic and I thought he forgot all about the Titanic II, well apparently not because he’s back! Yes!
Today (13 March 2024) at the Sydney Opera House he announced that the design plans for the new Titanic have been finalised and should be built well hopefully soon before we all die.
Palmer is a huge Titanic fan and announced in New York in 2013 his plan to build a replica of the RMS Titanic called Titanic II. He wants to recreate the Titanic as closely as possible to its previous appearance but this Titanic II will be safer and ‘far, far superior to the original Titanic’ - meaning it won’t sink and have people drowning etc.

Was gonna get a picture of the democracy sausage I got at my polling booth but I got mustard smeared all over my jumper and trying to deal with that distracted me.
Peak Australian experience right there.
Anyway I hope Dutton loses and someone answers the call to punt Clive Palmer into the sun. Cheers everyone.

CLIVE PALMER EXPOSED.
(TRUMPET of PARASITES)
Clive Palmer’s recent climate change advertisement is nothing but a blatant lie, a manipulation of old, debunked material twisted to serve his personal agenda. The so-called expert in his video has publicly stated that the claims are outdated and taken out of context. Yet Palmer, in true authoritarian fashion, continues to push this propaganda, trying to deceive Australians into believing his version of reality.
This isn’t the first time he has used such tactics. His latest political advertisements promise no fees for TAFE and university students, a calculated move targeting younger Australians who may be desperate for financial relief. But this is not a genuine commitment to education—it is a fishing net designed to capture the most vulnerable and lure them into supporting his hidden motives.
Palmer is a billionaire with a rich man’s agenda, one that aligns disturbingly well with Donald Trump’s tactics—appealing to populist sentiments while enriching himself. One of his slogans, “Making Australia Great,” echoes the dangerous rhetoric of past colonial empires that devastated one of the world’s oldest and most beautiful cultures: that of our Aboriginal brothers and sisters. If he had his way, Australia would regress into an era where the few ruled over the many, where the voices of the people are drowned out by the interests of the wealthy elite.
To those considering supporting Palmer, understand the implications of such a choice. Authoritarian figures rise not through force alone but through deception, using propaganda to sway the uninformed. Do not fall into his trap.
Personally, I do not align myself with any political faction. I refuse to bow down or pledge allegiance to any politician. These figures are not here for us to adore or blindly follow; they are here to serve us, the people who fund their positions with our taxes. It is our responsibility to hold them accountable, scrutinize their actions, and demand that they work for us—not for their own self-interest.
So to those attempting to bait me into political allegiance, you will fail. I am not on any corrupt political side, nor will I be fooled by their lies. The only side I stand on is the side of truth, accountability, and the well-being of the people. It’s time Australians see through the deceit and make informed decisions when they step into the voting booth.
Yours Truly

Australia is having a federal election and mining billionaire Clive Palmer has created a political party called “Trumpet of Patriots” dedicated to reducing tax for Clive Palmer.
Anyway he sent me this text telling me not to vote for One Nation (the pro racism party) because the vote will trickle down to The Liberal Party. I agree with this take made by this wannabe Trump whose ads say “Australia wants Trump policies.”
Do you know what I’m NOT going to do?
Vote #1 One Nation just to do the opposite of what he wants. Just because a bad man says something you agree with, that doesn’t mean you have to start believing the opposite.
When trans activists tell me I’m “on the side of the Christian right,” because we agree that men can’t be women, I want them to think about whether they’d vote #1 One Nation just to be contrary to what Trumpet of Patriots wants
