Media release CANBERRA – With 350,000 Australians homeless and nearly eight million households restricting the adults in the family to one meal a day, Clive Palmer announced today that he would take action to protect and defend the rights of all Australians. Mr Palmer will mount a High Court challenge to the Electoral Legislation Amendment (Electoral Reform) Act 2025, over concerns that the changes to election fund laws will limit the ability of members of parliament and those who seek to challenge them to communicate, entrenching Labor governments forever and making those who rule us unaccountable. “Both the Labor and Liberal parties have designed legislation to entrench themselves and silence the competition,’’ Mr Palmer said. “This is nothing more than an incumbency protection scheme to limit the number of alternative voices in Australian politics. “Both parties are aware of the threat of competition, which will expose their weaknesses and demonstrate how hopeless they are. “It is time that this challenge is heard in the High Court for a true and fair democracy in this country,’’ Mr Palmer said. Under the Act the Liberal and Labor parties will start out with 41 million dollars of taxpayer funds to fight off those who would question their competence. Mr Palmer said Australians were crying out for common sense policies and proactive politics that could improve their standard of living. “Australians are sick of hearing about increased spending on defence or climate change, or increased immigration or a new NRL team in PNG,’’ Mr Palmer said. “Right now, our infrastructure is broken and our hospitals and schools are in decline, yet the Labor Party introduces one million immigrants every year to take Australian jobs and destroy Australians opportunity. We need an immigration policy which only allows for family reunions. “Australians want to focus on what really matters. For this to happen we need fair elections where any party running can highlight policies that benefit all. “Election spending is vital so ideas can be introduced and people can make fair and proper decisions about their future government,’’ he said. United Australia Party Senator Ralph Babet said he was being restricted in his abilities to communicate policies with all Australians on important matters like immigration. “To write to every Australian via Australia Post would cost in the vicinity of $15 million to properly inform the electorate I like to correspond with. “All political parties need to be able to communicate so they can fully inform the voting public. With this new legislation, freedom of speech is taken away,’’ Senator Babet said. “The strict new caps make it nearly impossible for new independent voices and smaller parties to fund the grassroots campaigns needed to challenge the status quo. “We don’t have access to the thousands of PR people that the Liberals and Labor have. In fact, we have had our staff numbers cut again in a further attempt to stamp out competition. Mr Babet said the proposed new laws also came with a staggering price tag for the public. “Taxpayers will be forced to tip in millions of taxpayer dollars into the coffers of political participants every election cycle, with an estimated 75% of that windfall flowing directly to the major parties. “Recent polling shows that over 70% of Australians oppose such increases,’’ he said. Mr Palmer said the High Court challenge would be lodged within 90 days and that he was confident of success. “No government can legislate to stop its opponents from raising funds to fund communication of their political ideas to the Australian people while at the same time raiding the public purse for their own benefit.”Palmer to challenge Labor/ Liberal legislation in High Court of Australia

Media release Mineralogy Chairman Clive Palmer has donated a further $1 million to Foodbank Australia, building on his $5 million contribution in 2025 that has already helped deliver more than 5.4 million meals to Australians experiencing food insecurity. Mr Palmer said the latest donation reflected the scale of the challenge facing many Australian families and has called on others who are in a position to help – particularly the government – to do more to help. “The figures released by Foodbank over the past year show just how widespread food insecurity has become,” Mr Palmer said. Foodbank used the original donation to deliver 5.4 million meals and an estimated $19.31 million in food retail value, generating a $128.76 million social return on investment. The funding had a direct and measurable impact, particularly for families facing extreme financial stress. According to the Foodbank Hunger Report, in 2025 almost 3.5 million Australian households experienced food insecurity in the past 12 months – that’s one in three Australian households facing the distressing question of what, if anything, they can put on the dinner table. Foodbank reports that 20% of Australian households (approximately 1 in 5) are classified as “severely food insecure,” which is defined as frequently skipping meals or going entire days without eating. The support has helped ease pressure on struggling Australians by making food one less thing to worry about. In doing so, it has allowed households to stretch limited budgets further to cover essentials like housing, utilities and healthcare. The assistance has been especially critical for single-parent families, who are among the hardest hit. “While the earlier funding has made a real difference, the need has not eased. This additional contribution is intended to help Foodbank continue its work on the ground, Mr Palmer said. “Foodbank has shown that support can be turned quickly into meals for people who need them,” he said. “Foodbank is doing the heavy lifting in the fight against hunger. But they cannot do it alone. I encourage those who are in a position to help to consider doing so. “We need the government to step up and ensure that feeding hungry Australians is a priority. “We must do more to ensure every Australian – every child, every parent, every grandparent – has access to the food they need to live with dignity,’’ he said. Foodbank Australia Board Chair Duncan Makeig said the additional $1 million would provide important support at a time when demand for food relief remained high. “Demand for Foodbank services continues to exceed supply in many parts of the country,” Mr Makeig said. “Additional funding helps us to secure more food and maintain consistent supply to the charities and community organisations we support.” Mr Makeig said Mr Palmer’s continued support reinforced the importance of long-term commitment to addressing hunger. “We welcome this further donation and acknowledge the role it will play in helping Australians who are doing it tough.”

The additional funding will support Foodbank’s ongoing response to rising demand for emergency food relief, as cost-of-living pressures continue to affect households across the country.
Media release Former LNP life member and party spokesperson Clive Palmer said today that Australia was witnessing the death of the Liberal Party. “The Liberal Party lacks the conviction and strength needed to hold the Albanese Government to account,” Mr Palmer said. “We need a new dawn; we need an alternative to bring back prosperity.” Mr Palmer said Australians deserved a government that could create jobs and a thriving economy. “We need real policies that will make a difference to our country; not populist policies but policies that provide solutions and create wealth for all of Australia. It will soon emerge that a new era is coming,’’ he said. “Stop the rot, we need a real alternative for the people of Australia.” “The Liberals used to pride themselves on being different to Labor, they stood for smaller government and less tax, now they are nothing more than a Claytons Labor standing for bigger government and more taxes. “Meanwhile Australia is suffering a cost-of-living crisis with Foodbank recognising more than 3.4 million households are experiencing food insecurity. “This country has given me a lot and I am grateful for that. However, it is a disgrace that we live in one of the richest nations in the world, yet millions are hungry and homeless,’’ Mr Palmer said. “We don’t need advertising slogans; we need a new beginning. Now is the time to consider our future. “Together we can achieve the extraordinary. “Goodbye Liberal Party, goodbye,’’ he said.

Telereach poll shows Trumpet of Patriots key to future government
Media release Chairman and spokesperson for Trumpet of Patriots, Clive Palmer, has called for a strong, common-sense approach to reinvigorate Australia, stating that Trump-like policies were needed to secure the nation’s future. “Peter Dutton has stated that he’s no Donald Trump, and we agree with him,” Mr Palmer said. “Meanwhile, Anthony Albanese has presided over a declining standard of living for our country in each and every year he has served as Prime Minister.” Mr Palmer said opinion polls confirmed that Australians wanted leadership that prioritised national prosperity, economic growth, and respect for all citizens. “We don’t need to be welcomed to our own country. We need to respect all Australians,’’ he said. “We don’t need to be individually acknowledged by people we don’t know and have never met. “What we need is respect for all those who have contributed to making Australia the great nation it is today—people from every nation in the world.” Mr Palmer reaffirmed that all Australians are equal under the Southern Cross and called for a revitalised political debate focused on meaningful policy discussions. “We need to reinvigorate the political debate. We want to discuss policies because that is how we will get the best outcomes for this country. I am an Australian, and I believe in this country.” Mr Palmer urged Australians to support Trumpet of Patriots in its mission to drive real political change and secure a stronger future for the nation.
Australia needs Trump policies to restore prosperity
Media release The Trumpet of Patriots has condemned the Albanese Government’s handling of citizenship ceremonies, accusing it of using them as campaign events to boost Labor’s electoral chances. The controversy comes amid criticism that Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke has orchestrated a sudden wave of mass citizenship ceremonies, with 12,000 new Australians granted citizenship in the past two weeks—just as an election is expected to be called. Concerns have also been raised over allegations that only Labor MPs were invited to officiate at the events. Trumpet of Patriots chairman Clive Palmer said the move was a disgrace and should be investigated by the courts. “Albo is running scared and already trying to rig the election,” Mr Palmer said. “In Australia, for too long our people have suffered from a duopoly of power. “Trumpet of Patriots will bring transparency, common sense policies, and real change to our system,’’ Mr Palmer said.
