Summary |
Four Corners charts the rise and fall of the mercurial Clive Palmer, examining how he made his money, friends and bitter enemies along the way. With Palmer's political influence plummeting and serious questions hanging over his companies, reporter Hayden Cooper talks to political players, former colleagues and the workers left sacked at the now closed Queensland Nickel refinery in Townsville. Many are speaking out for the first time.'"He's an enigma. He's an individual let me tell you. They broke the mould when Clive was made.""What you've got is this really complex character who's both brilliant and stupid all at the same time.""He will give you loyalty, will protect you, he will do anything for you, more than a normal employer. But ...let's put it like this, loyalty there but no sentiments.""I think he's impossible to work with. Clive's not short on ego.""I mean as far as he's concerned, it's a benign dictatorship. You know, it's like it's my way or the highway." |
