CLIVE Palmer has suggested the Prime Minister “commit suicide” over his treatment of universities, and he’s being slammed for it.
During a press conference at Parliament House on the Australian economy, the Palmer United Party leader was expressing his opposition to the government’s tertiary education deregulation plans.
“There’s a million students going to tertiary education in this country, there’s a million more that’s about to go, and a million more that’s just left, they’ve all got parents,” he said.
“So commit suicide Tony Abbott, you know.”
Mr Palmer started laughing as he made the comment, and a Guardian journalist questioned whether he thought it was a respectable thing to say.
Mr Palmer responded, trying to clarify he meant “political suicide”.
“I was raising it because it was suicide, political suicide, to go against the will of what’s good for the Australian people.”
He later took to Twitter to further clarify his comments, and offer an apology.
Stupid Lardguts just committed his own "political suicide"
Oh and his big Dino shrivelled up and died as well.
(putting a bit of a spin on it) Good you set it right.
