Australian Conservatives Release

Sky News reports, The Liberal Party has reportedly agreed a preference deal with Clive Palmer to aid its prospects in rural Australia.
The South Australian Senator says the deal legitimises Clive Palmer’s United Australia Party ‘above and beyond where it should be’.
Senator Bernardi has told Sky News, ‘if it wasn’t for the weight of his money and the policy magpie approach, Mr Palmer would still be relegated as a bit of a joke’.
