Shame on you for thinking what you are thinking...this is not about him....
Tyrannosaurus Rex draws a link between the beautiful and bizarre
To help you put this story in context:
Clive Palmer developed his fortune in mining.
He recently bought two golf courses: Coolum and Robina. Both are legitimate/quality courses, with Coolum probably ranking in the Top 30 or so in the country.
He lobbies the government quite heavily to get his own way...proudly boasts that he has never lost a court case, so he is quite comfortable threatening litigation at every potential roadblock to getting what he wants. He is very outspoken to say the least.
He is a an active member of the state Liberal (i.e. "Republican") Party..but does not get along with one of the senior politicians, Jeff Sweeney, hence the name Jeff the dinosaur.
