"Get back to China": Clive Palmer shows the diplomatic style he'd bring as PM And this boof wants to be Prime Minister: Mr Palmer, who describes himself to Australian voters as a lifelong friend of China with deep and respectful relationships, told the executive: "I've had enough of you, so just pack up all your f . . king gear and get back to China." In the same recording, dated 2010 and now on The Australian's website, Mr Palmer added: "You people give me the shits. And if you continue to not pay your way we are going to throw you off to the point where we close your project down. I'm chairman of this f . . king company, and I don't want to ring up little shits like you because you won't pay your bloody, your bloody rates or pay your rent. The Australian has been told that the highest levels of China's political leadership have received reports of Mr Palmer's antics... That's helpful.
