WTF Is Going On With Senator Babet, Our New Grindset Politician?

Ralph Babet United Australia Party

Clive Palmer finally got someone in Parliament and of course they are just as fkn weird as he is. Impeccable branding, I guess? Senator Ralph Babet

The sacrifices we’ve made to be here are massive. Financially. Socially. Mentally. We’re not doing this because we want to but because we have to. Our country needs us. Public service has no tangible reward, history and doing what is right is the only reward. #history pic.twitter.com/H8pm4OgPXe

I believe in limited Government & free market principles.#koolaid #freethinker #nocultshere #biggovernmentsucks pic.twitter.com/wN1xNKlupD
