Has Clive Palmer gone mad?

Rupert Murdoch’s wife a spy: Palmer

While hitting the breakfast television circuit on Thursday, Mr Palmer also made accusations on the Nine Network’s Today show about Mr Murdoch’s estranged wife Wendi Deng.

‘‘You know, Rupert Murdoch’s wife Wendi Deng is a Chinese spy, and that’s been right across the world,’’ Mr Palmer alleged.

‘‘She’s been spying on Rupert for years, giving money back to Chinese intelligence. Read the truth about it.

‘‘She was trained in southern China. I’m telling you the truth, I’m telling you the truth.’’

A stunned Today host Karl Stefanovic interrupted Mr Palmer, questioning whether he had ‘‘lost the plot’’.

But Mr Palmer continued: ‘‘Wendy Deng is a Chinese spy, that’s why Rupert Murdoch got rid of her, and that’s the truth.

You would probably quite safely take out the "gone" in that question.

Karl is probably not the best judge?

allegation's got far more credence than you and stephanovic - in your collective haste to discredit palmer -  are givin' it credit for

Yeah I heard Clive Palmer saying  that on this mornings breakfast show too.

Everybody laughed at silly old Clive specially because he called her Wendy Dung. Apparently that's the way the chinese say Deng.

All to easy to dismiss as the rantings of a nutjob. But what if it's true?

The truth is often stranger than fiction.

Has anyone googled her?

Better still seeing he's being dismissed as a nutjob will Tone accept the preferences he said he was giving to the Libs?

Do you think it will be on google?

Why does it matter? It is simply wonderful that he is getting the message out there that Murdoch should not be deciding the election for us. I voted this morning and his representative was last on the list, he doesn't need my vote there are plenty of others out there that will vote for his party, good on him I reckon.

He made Karl sit back and listen for a change, yes Donna what he said about Murdoch was exactly what has/is happening. I found Ross Greenwoods analysis on the David an Sonia show this morning spot on as well.

Not really Az lol.

I'm sure if you were a spy you wouldn't want that on a public search engine like google.

I did have a look though.

What surprised me is that her father was listed as a factory worker, yet the family were able to send her to medical school, which she later abandoned to go to the US.

I wonder what Clive will come up with to substantiate that extraordinary statement?
